Dementia & Golf Research Released By University of Lincoln

In a week when the whole world is focussed on taking action to support families living with dementia and finding a cure for this devastating disease, it seems fitting to share with you an excellent dementia research project produced by students from the University of Lincoln.

In partnership with Golf In Society, Lincoln Golf Centre and with the excellent support of our dementia golfers and their carers, this excellent piece of research has been produced by final year sport’s science students.

The report makes very interesting reading and is the first in a wave of planned research projects that will be conducted in partnership with the University of Lincoln. Each research project will produce even deeper and detailed findings about the health, social and community impact of  using sport as a meaningful intervention in dementia care.

The more evidence-based research we gather, the sooner we can use it to influence health & social care stakeholders to embrace pioneering interventions like ours..

Here’s the link to the full report… Hope you find it of interest.
