All About Us Game

• The first board game developed with people with dementia, for people with dementia, with academic research on its impact on well-being for those with dementia and Alzheimer’s
• A great conversation game to play with small or big groups and with no right or wrong way to play, you can mould the instructions in a way that best suits you and your needs!
•  Life-storytelling boardgame uses conversation as a way of exploring your life from childhood through the present and into the future. It invites you to think and talk about who you are, your experiences, feelings, values, and what you have done and want to do, supporting those all-important feelings of identity, independence, and sense of purpose while building closer relationships.
• Designed and researched alongside people with dementia, this game features bright, contrasting colours, clear recognisable shapes, a large typeface and easily holdable cards for those with reduced dexterity.

The result of a European-funded research and design project to positively affect the well-being and confidence of those with dementia, this wonderful game was produced as a collaboration between the MinD project (led by academics from Manchester Metropolitan University, partnering with the University of Wolverhampton, the NHS and Alzheimer Europe) and Relish, in consultation and review with over 100 people with early to mid-stage dementia across the UK, Germany, the Netherlands and Spain.
