Twenty-four practical talks for use in care homes by Chris Crosskey Are you involved in leading worship in care homes? Do you find it difficult when you are aware that many of those to whom you are speaking are living with dementia? If so, this new publication from the Leveson Centre in partnership with Church Army is for you. The author Chris Crosskey, a Church Army evangelist, is also a qualified social worker who has for some time been trying out different ideas for worship in order to discover those things that work well and seem to connect with people living with dementia. This booklet offers outlines for twenty-four short talks on a variety of themes together with appropriate bible readings and prayers. Also included with each talk are five helpful communication tips for anyone involved in work with people living with dementia.
