New Partnership

WRAP are currently working in partnership with the British Museum of Folk Law on producing memories of bonfire night, the mop and street fairs, Whit sunday celebrations and the river Avon.

Already we have discovered that in Stratford upon Avon before the town had a swimming pool there was a mass swim down the river from the old bathing place to the bridge on the Bancroft.

So watch this space for more reminiscences.

Stratford Hospital (Nichol Unit).

The grand opening of the Nicol Unit took place recently and the transformation is excellent.

Great news we have moved into the old Chapel on Stratford Hospital Site near the Nichol Unit.

We are open Tuesdays 9.00 until 4.30 p.m So pop along and meet us.

The Nichol unit will be linking with WRAP's training packages that are available for staff and volunteers.

It is hoped that a future stay in the Nichol Unit will be a stimulating experience and improve well-being.

Reminiscence Therapy.

W.R.A.P is a limited company by guarantee that has recently acquired Charity status and become a centre for the Open College Network. Our objectives are to promote Reminiscence therapy work and to provide on going training for people working with older members of the community and carers who work alongside people living with dementia.

Additionally we aim to provide reminiscence therapy training for carers and volunteers who work in schools through the community.

We will also carry out projects on intergeneration work within schools  linking them to community groups.

 We also wish to establish a centre for the development of reminiscence work in Warwickshire.

What is Reminiscence?.............................

Reminiscence work or therapy is excellent at developing well-being in people. It is an enjoyable experience, It brings people together to discuss a  memory or memories of events that have been shared by those participating. Holidays, work, family, the war, festivals and the seasons, are some of the themes that can be used to reminisce.

All memories are assisted by the six senses. Touch smell, taste,sound and sight, and physical action.

Our trigger boxes are full of items that use the five senses to promote memory recall and the enjoyment of discovering something from your past that had not been seen for a long time.

 

TRIGGER BANK

We have a selection of triggers mostly themed in boxes for loan. To join the trigger bank it costs £38.00 per year. You will be able to loan each trigger box for up to 21 days. We have a choice of 32 boxes all themed and including artifacts that will stimulate the five sense. The trigger bank is open every Tuesday from 10.00 a.m. until 3.30 p.m. in the afternoon.

Sue Parr our trigger bank co-ordinator will look forward to meeting you. or you can telephone . 0770 414 7316

If you are interested in supporting WRAP, we would welcome you to become a member of one of our committees and encourage you to attend our next meeting please telephone for date and time.

Alternatively you could just become a friend of wrap.

To become a friend send ten pounds together with your name address & post code to our secretary. In exchange you will receive a copy of our newsletter and invites to attend at a discount our organised events some of which are social occasions.

Sometime in the future we are intending to open a centre of excellence for reminiscence, which will be a centre for well-being and provide an Alzheimer’s café together with a trigger collection that will encourage interactive displays. There will be themed rooms depicting triggers that can be borrowed for group work. We hope that the building will be a period building that will reflect the 19th and 20th Century. We wish to preserve the history of Stratford upon Avon and the surrounding countryside and how it contributed towards the war effort in both wars.  To do this we would need a building and lots of money. If you have those items and would like to donate them please speak to our secretary.
