This edited book will examine leisure in the lives of people with
dementia, emphasising the active role people with dementia can play
as citizens in contributing to the world in which they live, given
opportunities to make choices about their participation in
it. The content will be wide-ranging, with contributors from
multiple disciplines discussing involvement in leisure interests
and activities from sports and physical activity, and the arts, to
hobbies, games and crafts. Contributions will be shaped by
co-editors with experience in research and practice relevant to
dementia and leisure, one of whom is living with dementia. Its
structure and content will align with the needs of those studying
and working in nursing and dementia care, occupational therapy,
social work, arts therapies, arts, health and wellbeing, sports and
exercise, and gerontology.Â
