Memory Box
$189.30 inc. GST
A Memory Box isn’t just somewhere to stash belongings – it’s a small space that quietly holds the things that matter most. In a care setting, this simple memory aid supports reminiscence therapy and is suitable for people living with dementia.
Please note: The Memory Box shown filled with items is for display purposes only.
Create a Personal Connection with a Memory Box
Think about it – you lift the lid and there’s that ticket stub from a seaside pier, the smooth pebble collected decades ago, or maybe a scarf that still carries a familiar perfume. These little items have a way of pulling a person back to a time and place as if it were yesterday. A Memory Box gives those moments a home. Not locked away. Not forgotten.
Why They Matter in Reminiscence Therapy
In a busy care home, personal touches can get lost among the routines. Having one place for mementos – photographs, trinkets, letters – helps someone feel anchored. These memory aids are a core part of reminiscence therapy, giving carers and visitors an easy way in: “Tell me about this…” Often, that’s all it takes for a smile to appear. And because a Memory Box can hold objects you can see, touch, or even smell, the experience becomes richer than flicking through a photo album alone.
