Story
We are trying to raise funds to purchase the "Magic Table" (interactive projector from Tovertafel) for St Andrews Care Home to use to stimulate residents of our care home. It helps provide positive therapy/wellbeing for patients with all kinds of conditions.
Excerpts from product link below...
"Are you looking for a fun way to stimulate people with dementia to move more and interact socially? The Tovertafel Original was developed for and with people in the moderate to severe stages of dementia. The interactive games break through apathy by stimulating both physical and cognitive activity and encouraging social interaction. Moreover, the Tovertafel creates treasured moments with family members and carers. These games are all about enjoyment and wonder. "
"The Tovertafel is a little box that can be mounted on the ceiling, for instance, above the dining room table of a care institute. Inside the box is a high-quality projector, infrared sensors, speaker, and processor that work together to project the games onto the table. Because the colourful objects respond to hand and arm movements, residents get to play with the light itself."
The projector costs around £6000. Just over half of the money has already been raised without online help. But we really need to top this amount up to £6000 so we can purchase it.
