A studio service
Dementia activity books, made around real lives.
Generic puzzle books rarely mention the town someone grew up in, the job they did or the songs they danced to. We design large print activity and reminiscence books around a person, a care home or a local area, with familiar places, pictures and words, adult in tone and ready to print for residents or family.
N° 01What we design
Familiar, never childish.
01
Reminiscence pages
Pictures and prompts drawn from your area's history, industries, high streets, schools and seaside towns.
02
Life story books
A book for one person built from family photos and stories, with gentle questions for visitors.
03
Large print puzzles
Word searches, easy matching and picture pages graded for early, middle and late stage, on familiar themes.
04
Picture conversation books
One calm picture and a large caption per page, chosen for a resident's interests.
05
Care home editions
A set for a home or group of homes, with your name and an activities guide for staff.
06
Print-ready files
Large print layouts set for your printer, with laminate-friendly versions.
N° 02Who orders them
For the people who care.
01
Care homes and day centres
Activity books residents and staff can use together, matched to your local area.
02
Families
A life story or picture book built around a parent or grandparent.
03
Charities and memory cafés
Sets for groups, sessions and loan libraries.
04
Health and social care teams
Materials for activity coordinators and occupational therapy, from your brief.
N° 03A note on claims
For enjoyment, not as treatment.
We design activity and reminiscence materials. We make no claims that they prevent, slow or treat dementia, and any care guidance printed in a book is supplied and approved by you.
N° 04How it runs
Plan first, pages after.
01
1. Page plan
We agree who the book is for, the stage or stages it serves, the themes, places and photos to include, and the print format, then list every page.
02
2. Sample spreads
Two or three finished layouts in the agreed look, so you approve the style, the type size and the writing space before the rest is built.
03
3. Full build
Every page produced to the plan, dates generated and checked where the planner is dated, then one consolidated round of changes.
04
4. Files
Cover, print-ready PDFs set to your printer's template, editable source files and, where agreed, a hyperlinked digital edition.

N° 06Questions
The answers we give most often.
- Can you use our residents' photos?
- Yes, with permission from the resident or their family, which you arrange. We can also draw scenes from photos so no one is identifiable.
- Can books include our town's history?
- Yes. Send local photos and stories, or tell us the places, and we build pages around them.
- Are the books suitable for all stages?
- We grade pages by stage: large print puzzles for the early stage, simpler matching for the middle stage and picture pages for the late stage.
- Do we own the books?
- Yes, with full rights to print them for your residents or family.
