The Still Strolling app was developed for the Red House Museum in Christchurch with support from the National Lottery Heritage Fund. The app is aimed at people with dementia and their carers, helping them become more active and feel supported in the local community.
There are several short routes around Christchurch starting at the Red House Museum. Each one includes a point of interest brought to life by a short video featuring a museum team member talking about its significance and history. These include Christchurch Castle and Norman House, as well as lesser-known landmarks such as Mrs Perkins’ Mausoleum.
The app is now available via the Situate app, which can be downloaded from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
Engagement Activities
Each trail includes some simple activities at the destination, that are designed to help stimulate the participants.
