As part of their coronavirus information section, Alzheimer’s Society (UK) has provided suggestions of digital, web-based and physical activities for people living with dementia, aiming to help them pass the time, keep engaged and stimulated whilst isolating at home. These suggestions include using technologies such as smartphones and tablets to listen to music and audiobooks, or to access creative activity apps and digital assistants such as Alexa. The Alzheimer’s Society also identify ways in which people with dementia can remain physically active in the home, either through online exercise programmes or via engaging in activities such as gardening, seated exercises or going for walks.
