Cognitive Stimulation Therapy

Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (CST) is a group treatment specifically designed for people with dementia. It is the only non-pharmacological treatment recommended by NICE guidelines to promote memory function.

CST is a programme of group activities designed to use existing memory skills and stimulate new ways of recalling information, opinions and personal values. CST sessions run for one hour twice a week for seven weeks and then weekly for four months.

CST is run in conjunction with NHS Barnsley Day Services Team.
