A NEW puzzle magazine has been launched aimed at people who have dementia.
Puzzles & Pastimes brings together the knowledge of Unforgettable, who specialise in improving the lives of those affected by the condition, and the puzzle expertise of our sister publication Puzzler.
The new magazine includes 140 pages of puzzles and activities including visual puzzles, nostalgia, memory games and more, with hints and tips for carers on how to get the most out of the magazine.
The colour pages are clear and help to create a calm environment, and nostalgic images are used throughout.
Puzzler Publishing Manager Mark Whiteway said: “We have over 45 years of experience in making puzzles of all types and levels of difficulty, and we know that our readers value puzzles as a way of exercising mind and memory, as well as for their pure entertainment value.
“Some readers resort to children’s puzzles as their sight and memory deteriorate, so we wanted to produce a dedicated magazine that would allow solvers to enjoy the benefits of puzzles for as long as possible, whether alone or in the company of a carer.
“To ensure we provided the most appropriate content and design, it was essential to seek the professional guidance of James Ashwell and his team at Unforgettable. Their advice was invaluable in compiling this unique mix of activities and puzzles of varying levels.”
Puzzles & Pastimes goes on sale on 8 November priced £5.99.
