Engage Memories and Conversations
Spread these cards out on a table and you’ll soon see people leaning in. Washing Day, The Tool Shed, The Lolly Shop — each image chosen because it’s the sort of thing that sticks in the mind. The cards are A5 in size, easy to hold, and the laminate finish means a quick wipe keeps them ready for next time.
Conversation Starters with Meaning
It’s not just about the pictures. On the back you’ll find a few background notes and some gentle prompts. Enough to help carers, family or activity staff get things rolling without feeling forced. They work well when you’re sitting one-to-one, but they’re just as effective passed around a small group.
Practical for Everyday Use
Everything fits neatly into a tough plastic wallet, so nothing gets lost between sessions. The images are printed both sides, meaning no need to keep turning them around for others to see.
- Lay a few cards out and invite people to pick one to talk about.

- Link each image to music or objects from the same era.
