Become a CST Facilitator
Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (CST) has been proven to be as effective as some of the anti-dementia drugs and the evidence is growing.
Whilst there is no cure for dementia, there is a treatment that boasts good results. The principles of CST can be used as a basis of all stimulating group activity planning. Ideal for residential settings, community groups, care homes and day centres.
