Ageless Traveler Podcast – CareGiver Travel
This episode is the second in our 3-part series on Caregiver Travel. If you are a family caregiver or have mild dementia, our guest Dr. Carol Sargent will guide you to travel worry free.
Having those difficult uncomfortable conversations
I have been taking my own advice, and enjoyed a holiday last week with my family in Devon.
This weeks newsletter is a reflection of one of the topics that I think the dementia community and society in general needs to do more of to allow us to all live our best lives, “Having Those Difficult Uncomfortable Conversations”
Home is Where the Heart is
A home is not just about bricks and mortar. Understanding the heart of the home can give the dementia community the confidence to stay with family, friends and go on holiday. Not just to experience all the health and well-being benefits we all know a good holiday can give, but to better understand what is important if people living with dementia have to leave their homes because of illness, safety or an unexpected event.
Creating Meaningful Connections
In a week where I have seen many people create meaningful connections for the dementia community, I would be really interested in other people’s perspectives on how we create meaningful connections with one another, but in particular a person living with dementia.
Inclusive Holidays
Our guests today are Felicity and David Brown, who own Hoe Grange Holidays in the Peak District and they talk to us about how over the last 17 years they have built an award winning all-inclusive holiday business from scratch on the farm that has been in David’s family since the 1930s
Having a Voice
Today’s guest is Billal Jamil, the MD and one of the founders at Public Speaking Academy, who talks to us about the importance of being heard in the context of inclusivity.
Inclusivity with Allergy
Dr Carol Sargent and Dr Tom Adler speak to
Zak Marks, co-founder of Kitt Medical. He has lived with a severe allergy to nuts for as long as he can remember. He decided to tackle a problem closest to his heart, which is – why isn’t there an equivalent to defibrillators for allergies? Wherever you go, there is usually access to a defibrillator, but there is no access to epi pens.
Emily Yates – All Inclusive Tourism
Our guest on today’s podcast is Emily Yates who heads up the accessibility and inclusive design team for Mima, an inclusive creative design agency.
We talk to Emily about the changes that design can make to people’s lives, and All Inclusive Tourism.
