The Big Green Picnic

Published: 30/06/2025

Right at Home Loughton, Redbridge & Waltham Forest are really happy to collaborate with Dementia Adventure to present the Big Green Picnic.

Who is Dementia Adventure?

Dementia Adventure is an organisation dedicated to helping people living with dementia stay connected to nature and the outdoors. Their mission aligns perfectly with our values at Right at Home Loughton, Redbridge & Waltham Forest.

The Big Green Picnic is our way of coming together to raise awareness about dementia and also encourage everyone to get involved and connect.

Our Picnic at Ashbrook Court

We hosted our picnic at Ashbrook Care Home. Thank you to them for allowing us to use their lovely home! 

Our team at Right at Home Loughton, Redbridge & Waltham Forest brought delicious sandwiches, snacks, cakes and sweet treats.

We provided a fantastic range of engaging activities including:

  • Puzzles
  • Colouring
  • Jewellery Making
  • Flower Arranging
  • Dancing
  • Live Music
  • Food Taste Testing Games
  • Bingo

Each activity was chosen specifically to be accessible and also to explore all the senses.

We wanted to highlight and say thank you to Mary Gibbs who performed live music. Our clients really enjoyed the singalongs and her music was really engaging.

Why Outdoor Connection Matters

  • Stimulation of all your senses (smell, touch, sight, hear, taste)
  • Meeting new people
  • Opportunities to get out of the house and move around (physical activity)
