People with dementia or special needs often have restless hands and like to have something to keep their hands occupied. This activity blanket not only keeps hands busy, but it also provides a wonderful source of visual, tactile and sensory stimulation and at the same time keeps knees snug and warm with the snug warm padded lining.

Designed by Activities to Share and handmade in England, we are proud of our Activity Blanket for people with dementia and other disorders. It has been thoroughly tried and tested so we can be sure that it’s popular, appropriate, and practical.

Ideal for older people living in care homes, and patients in hospitals and makes a great gift for an older family member with dementia living in their own home.

Features include: a centre plastic pouch /pocket for a favourite photo; a hand-sized pocket with a detachable mini cushion; a sturdy zip; three textured ribbons;   a slider; 3 tactile fabric swatches; 4 rows of coloured beads threaded and edged and three strong laces edged with felt.  The blanket is made of fleece and slightly padded to provide extra warmth.

Please note that attachments may vary slightly.

If you are looking for other colours we have Blue and Red also available.
