What have participants said about participating in Homeside?

The UK is now around half way through the Homeside study. Here’s what participants have said so far!

Reading

"I didn't think reading would work as an activity with my partner...but it has. I am now being more creative about things to do with him...I'm more aware of other possibilities"

"We are pleased to have taken part...it's opened up the world to us at this time"

Music

“We now have music most of the time. [CR] now joins in spontaneously, or initiates clapping, swaying, foot tapping, often smiling and laughing.”

“Another good session. Definitely has a positive effect on mum. Seems to calm her down and cheer her up if she’s a bit down. I never thought that she would respond so positively.”
