21/04/2021

8-year-old Heather Bryson has released a 9-minute-long chair exercise video, specifically developed by physiotherapists, for people living with dementia. Heather is no stranger to helping people with dementia, having already donated proceeds to Alzheimer Scotland, from her lockdown craft project upcycling old tea sets to create birdfeeders and selling them. Heather’s mother Deborah works for Alzheimer Scotland and Heather gained her Dementia Friends badge through one of their sessions. She is also working with Alzheimer Scotland to develop child-friendly Dementia Friends training sessions.

The new chair exercise video is available on her YouTube channel:
