Jonathan: I'm so glad to see you've proposed this. Check out the website for Dementia Adventure in Essex, England. I've followed their work for a long time. Coincidentally, I am developing a Memory Camp in the North Woods of Wisconsin for next August. Ours will be 4 nights/3 days at a camp that has 13 years experience doing camps for children/youth with autism and their families. Good luck!
