Reminiscing through the power of sport
Somerset Cricket Foundation are working alongside the Sporting Memories Foundation to launch a new programme; Sporting Memories. This new community initiative aims to bring people of retirement age together to reminisce about previous memories, experiences or moments in their lives through the power of sport. Sports memorabilia, past sporting events, physical activities, quizzes and guest speakers are used to create discussions around sporting events and memories.
About the sessions
The initiative is open to MEN only aged 50 and over, but is primarily designed to support those living with early one set dementia, depression and loneliness – and their families – and those wishing to talk about sport with like-minded people. The match day programme for each session will follow this format:
- 10.30am: KICK OFF
- 10.30am – 11.15am: Sports Talk
- 11.15 – 11.30: HALF TIME
- 11.30 – 12pm: SPORTING GAME
