Description

This collection of research and theory explores the significance of leisure in the everyday lives of people living with dementia. It challenges readers to consider the role of leisure activities beyond their potential for therapeutic benefit.

Leisure and Everyday Life with Dementia examines diverse kinds of leisure, including sports, music, travel, nature, and the online world. The book highlights how leisure offers people living with dementia opportunities to realise their citizenship through participating in leisure in everyday life.

The authors argue that society plays a crucial role in enabling this by giving equal chances for individuals to make choices about how, when, and where they participate in leisure activities. This book provides accessible summaries of the research findings, helping readers understand the practical implications of these ideas.
