Abstract: The Digital timelines project (2014-1-UK01-KA204-000071) co-financed by the European Union under the Erasmus+ programme and coordinated by the Lancaster and Morecambe College, UK addresses the issue of dementia. The project relies on thorough research on dementia carried out in five European countries and aims at producing a training programme and creating digital resources which can encapsulate memory stimulating information from a variety of media to benefit specifically the person with dementia and their family and friends, as well as professional carers. New models of coordinated and non-pharmacologic rehabilitative care systems meeting the needs of individuals with dementia and their family members are imperative in order to respond to the increasing number of individuals living in the community with this devastating disease.
