Sporting Memories
Tackling dementia, depression and loneliness through the power of sport
For over 10 years Sporting Memories have been using the power of remembering and talking about sport – along with physical exercise – to tackle dementia, depression and loneliness. They are dedicated to bringing together older adults through the love of sport. In Swansea, these clubs are run by Ospreys in the Community There are Sporting Memories Clubs around Swansea and they provide social and physical activities. Everyone finds fun, friendship and increased well-being. (The clubs are English speaking, but may have Welsh speakers there)
There are currently six Sporting Memories clubs in the area: at St Helens (Swansea RFC), Dunvant RFC, Loughor RFC, The Gnoll (Neath RFC), Skewen RFC and Ynystawe RFC
