Making Sense is excited to announce the launch of five new reminiscence collections inspired by the 1950s. These collections are designed to spark memories, start conversations, and bring joy to care home residents and community groups.
Easy Access Through Denbighshire Libraries
The collections are available for short loans from Denbighshire Libraries. All you need is a library card, and you can arrange to pick up the collections from your nearest library.
Designed With Residents in Mind
Each collection has been carefully developed through workshop sessions with care home residents and staff, ensuring the objects and ideas are engaging and meaningful. The packs include creative prompts, activities, and inspiration to make each session interactive and fun.
What’s Inside the Packs
-
50 reminiscence cards featuring images of objects from the 1950s
-
Bilingual quotes, rhymes, and ideas to help start conversations

Perfect for care homes, community groups, or individual use
These packs are free to care homes in Denbighshire thanks to our partnership with Denbighshire Library Service. For those outside the area, the packs are available to purchase via our website for £25, with all proceeds supporting the work of Making Sense CIO.
