Music Mirrors is a life story resource to trigger autobiographical memory using sound or music. The Health Innovation Network led a project to promote music mirrors across the south London dementia community.

The aim of this project was to increase the number of people with dementia using Music Mirrors by developing a ‘Train the Trainer’ programme for professionals, care home staff and volunteers across a variety of health, social care and community settings.

Feedback from participants identified a need for additional resources when making a Music Mirror. The HIN is working with Music Mirrors to develop a short film and simple guidance for families to support them in providing life story prompts to care staff and volunteers. These will be available late 2016.
