Bishan East-Thomson Constituency Joins Forget Us Not Initiative, Launches Singapore’S First Dementia-Friendly Kopitiam
Forget Us Not & Bishan East-Thomson Bishan East-Thomson constituency joins Forget Us Not initiative, launches Singapore’s first dementia-friendly kopitiam Ground-up movement by the Lien Foundation has trained 86 organisations & close to 19,000 dementia friends, involving key segments of society – from transport, finance & F&B sectors, to schools, VWOs & civic/religious bodies 7 October 2017 1. The Bishan East-Thomson constituency, which has twice the proportion of 80-year-olds compared to the national average1, has joined an initiative by the Lien Foundation to build a dementia-friendly Singapore. 2. The Forget Us Not campaign seeks to build a community of care where as many people as possible -- from the kopitiam stallholder, bus driver and cashier, to the bank teller, grassroots leader and the public at large – are trained to support people with dementia and help them lead active, engaged lives for as long as they can. 3. A familiar Bishan landmark of more than two decades, the 24-hour Kim San Leng kopitiam (金山嶺) has been transformed into a hub for sparking awareness and understanding of this incurable, degenerative condition that largely affects the old. This food centre sports eye- catching decals that act as conversation-starters on the condition and its stallholders have been taught how to help and respond suitably to persons with dementia (PWDs). Creating a dementia-friendly community in Bishan East-Thomson 4. Local partners have joined the movement to transform this constituency into a dementia- friendly community. In addition to the Kim San Leng Food Centre, these include the Bishan Merchants’ Association, Bishan Community Club and REACH Family Service Centre.
