AnnotationIn summer 2014, the authors were approached by Central and Cecil (C&C) care homes to devise a digital arts project to introduce staff and residents to the creative potential of iPads (also called tablet computers). The authors describe the resulting project with the theme "The Person Within" that led to exhibitions of digital self-portraits during Dementia Awareness Week in May 2015, and at the UK Dementia Congress in Telford in November 2015.
