AnnotationThe Age Exchange Reminiscence Centre in Blackheath, London is staging an arts festival to celebrate the life stories of people from ethnic minorities now living in the UK. The festival, called "The Place Where I Grew Up", is also being used to launch a book on reminiscence work with ethnic minority elders, including those with dementia. This article outlines the development of the reminiscence project that has received help from trained art workers for older people at community and day centres. (RH).
