Enabling Festival 2022

In its fifth installment since 2018, The Enabling Festival 2022 will be hybrid in nature. The festival hopes to reconnect with the public in person.

The on-going COVID-19 pandemic has created worlds of isolation for all of us and particularly challenging for caregivers and persons living with dementia. The lack of physical interaction has reminded us of the importance to “stay in touch”. More than ever before, we need to re-activate the sense of touch in our lives and daily living. A single touch can help reduce anxiety and make us feel secure, psychologically safe and less alone. It can even reduce pain and the feeling of social exclusion.

We encourage you to join us in person or online , at your convenience, and support this festival build by caregivers for caregivers.
