Most people think a dementia diagnosis means life has to become smaller.
In this episode, Nick is joined by Fiona Pettit, who leads Dementia Adventure, a charity helping people with dementia and their carers stay connected to the outdoors, to nature, and to a sense of possibility.
They explore:
- Why dementia can make the world feel smaller.
- How outdoor experiences can support wellbeing, confidence and connection.
- The role of carers, and why support matters for them too.
- How shared experiences can still create joy, laughter and meaningful memories.
- Why life doesn't have to stop after a diagnosis.
It's a thoughtful conversation about dementia, care, and the importance of remembering what is still possible.
