August Table Talk is a ready-to-use daily conversation starter pack designed especially for care homes. Each day of the month comes with 2 printable A4 sheets featuring gentle questions, memory prompts, and playful trivia that are ideal for encouraging group chats, laughter, and moments of connection.
Created by activity specialists with experience in dementia care, the pack balances nostalgic themes, thought-provoking open questions, and shared “On This Day” facts that often surprise both residents and staff.
It’s inclusive, with no right or wrong answers – just simple joy in storytelling and shared memories. The variety of themes (like pubs, sunflowers, school days, and favourite biscuits) invites everyone to participate at their own pace.
Perfect for mealtimes, one-to-one chats, or group sessions, August Table Talk helps foster routine, conversation, and confidence through light, daily stimulation. It’s a great way to support wellbeing while adding something uplifting to your daily calendar – and best of all, it’s completely free to download and use.
