Books & Media for Aged Care, Seniors and Dimentia

Books, music, films - small things that change the feel of a room. A poem read aloud. A favourite hymn. A gentle documentary in the afternoon. Our Books & Media range is about those moments: simple prompts that invite listening, looking, remembering.

Some people like pages they can hold. Large-print books, picture books, simple story collections. Others respond to sound - sing-along DVDs, playlists from their era, calm background music for quieter hours. Visual media helps too: nature scenes, craft how-tos, short films that spark a chat without demanding attention.

Use them one-to-one or with a group

Read a page, pause, ask a question. Play a song and watch the room shift. Pair media with sensory activities or tactile activities — pass around a soft scarf during a lullaby, or a photo while reading about seaside memories.

Accessibility in Mind

Everything is chosen for ease: bigger text, clear audio, familiar themes. Store on a single shelf, bring to any lounge, keep a few favourites ready for visitors. When words are hard to find, a line of music or a picture on a page often does the work for you.
