Here is a new short Dementia Cafe style activity. Ask members to simply match the A pictures with the B pictures. You can either do this by way of taking screenshots of the sets of images and printing them out for the tables, or you could print all the photos off for members to pair up one at a time.
Before that, however, here are some idioms to complete together ...
