Join us online to celebrate the launch of the finale of our work to rewrite the story of dementia in a publishing world first!SEPTEMBER 23RD: THE ONLINE EVENT
4,4,4&2, the finale of our work to rewrite the story of dementia, launches in-person in Edinburgh this September – and we’re extending the celebrations for all of those further afield. Printed using an innovative disappearing ink to mimic the physical degeneration of the brain which can take place during the dementia journey, 4,4,4&2 maps the life of Maggie Watson – our close collaborator and dear friend, diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and Vascular Dementia in 2021. A ‘living cookbook,’ the publication walks readers through early childhood recipes, savoury dinners, shared bakes and treasured family hand-me-downs – using the medium of cooking to not only share the standout recipes from a life very well eaten, but also to map the effects of a dementia diagnosis on an individual, and those they share their life with.
Join us online to hear more about this important project and enjoy a series of recordings and insights from the in-person launch. Hope to see you there!
