In this year's national #ARCseminar series, we explore the healing power of creative arts.
Here, in the third webinar of the series, we will be hearing from researchers on: Creative arts for dementia care.
Three short 10-minute talks explore research on the impact of music therapy, singing and dancing interventions for people with dementia, and using creative arts to involve people with dementia in research.
Speakers:
- NIHR ARC East of England's Dr Ming-Hung Hsu on music therapy for dementia.
- NIHR ARC North West Coast's Dr Megan Polden on singing and dancing interventions for dementia.
- NIHR ARC South West Peninsula's Prof Linda Clare on using creative arts to involve people with dementia in the largest study of living well with dementia in the UK.
