Dementia week with laughter

12062008660 - Corporate Laughter Yoga Training & Workshop Specialists in the UK | Corporate Wellness & Workplace Wellbeing Programmes, Trainings & Workshops in London UK with Laughter Yoga Expert Lotte MikkelsenCare homes, hospices and senior centres around the country were busy running laughter workshops for improved physical, mental, emotional and social wellbeing.

Laughter brings us together – and keeps us together!

We were thrilled to be part of so many plans for bringing laughter to our elderly countrymen and -women.

Laughter Yoga can potentially bring about improved memory and health all round, and in places where connection is key and days may sometimes seem lengthy and without much company, sharing laughter as an exercise has real value.
