Welcome to Dementia Jersey’s Big Brain Challenge!
The challenge is to navigate your way to all 25 locations on the island to have a chance to win an iPad donated by Jersey Telecom.
Cog & Sprocket.
Each location contains some information about improving your brain health, and a clue to the next location. As you read the information about improving your brain health, you will notice that there is a letter in purple. Make a record of each purple letter at each site so that once you have visited them all you will be able to make a phrase about brain health. You can then submit the phrase via our website, giving you a chance to win an iPad.
Choose what works for you.
Like most things in life, it’s about making choices that work for you. For example, being physically active doesn’t have to mean hitting the gym. It could be dancing in the kitchen or a brisk walk instead of taking the bus. Being physically active is what matters, the type of activity is far less important than ensuring that you are being active every day. Being physically active is one of the best things you can do to boost brain health. Regular exercise helps maintain a good blood supply to the brain, improves mental wellbeing, and promotes good quality sleep.
Stop off at this public place of peace and quiet to read, study or borrow.
Keep us up to date on how you’re getting on and share your photos!
