THE PIECES OF MY JIGSAW PROJECT
Local resident - Rosie Anderson came up with an idea to help her dad (who is living with dementia) remember with more clarity. Collaborating with other artists it has grown into this fantastic personal prompt for each person involved in the project - culminating in a personal book and song.
You can see a film documenting the progress of the project at the
FORUM CINEMA HEXHAM
