Making Nature Accessible | Cornwall Memory Cafe Podcast #14

In this episode of our podcast, host Anna Lempriere from the Cornwall Memory Cafe Network speaks with featured guests Katie and Claire from Sensory Trust, a national charity focused on connecting people with nature and promoting inclusive access to the outdoors. Join us as we explore how Sensory Trust’s Creative Spaces project organises dementia-friendly walking groups across Cornwall, providing opportunities for social connection and wellbeing. The walks are designed to be gentle and accessible, allowing participants to connect with nature in a safe, supportive environment. Also discussed is the deeper connection people experience through sensory engagement and storytelling during these walks.
