We have taken our time in finding just the right doll for anyone with dementia and we think Emily is just about perfect. She is the right size to cuddle, has a lovely soft body and her eyes close. Her hat is also attached to her fleecy outfit to prevent it getting lost.

Doll therapy is now a very effective part of dementia care and dementia care specialists fully endorse the use of dolls to help create a sense of wellbeing for people with dementia who often have a very real need to comfort and nurture.

Size: (h) 46cm. Clothes can be removed and washed. Please note: dummy not now included.

Have a look at this YouTube clip to see how much pleasure this older person with dementia is getting from her doll https://youtu.be/Pp8aKaWN7EI
