CARE home residents will be taking a trip down memory lane at a reminiscence party today.

It will be held at Aspen Court Nursing Home in Spondon, where people will be creating memory boxes, listening to old music and sharing their memories.

The special reminiscence events have been happening at Bupa-run care homes all week as part of Memory Share Week, which aims to encourage everyone to do more to capture family memories by highlighting the important role reminiscence plays in the lives of older people, and how it can make a significant difference to their wellbeing.

To help families capture the memories of their loved ones, Bupa has created a Map of Life tool, available online at www.bupa.co.uk/mapoflife.
