Project details
Dundee FC – Football Memories
Football Memories, delivered in partnership with Alzheimer Scotland is an initiative aimed at giving older people, the chance to meet and reminisce about the beautiful game in the home of Dundee Football Club. The group is often visited by some former players who share their memorable moments and memorabilia of the past.
There are over 84,000 people in Scotland with dementia, the equivalent of every spectator on an average Scottish football weekend. Groups are being established locally across Scotland, and football images and memorabilia are used as reminiscence therapy for people with dementia and other memory problems. The recall by many attending the groups is fascinating and several stories are being recorded for use with future generations of football supporters.
