Haydon Wick Parish Council’s interactive Mobii Table is now available to hire.

This piece of equipment is proven to be beneficial to people living with dementia, as well as children and adults with additional learning needs.

Magic Tables for Dementia Care

In those who have used interactive tables, professionals have witnessed positive changes in:

Emotional stability
Mood/outlook
Sense of self-worth/belonging
Physical effort/energy
Social involvement
Ability to share and enjoy

An interactive activity table for children and adults in care

Those with additional learning needs, age-related diseases, mental health issues or other physical health concerns, need opportunities to actively:

Take part rather than passively watch
Socialise and enjoy meaningful activities together
Stretch, compete, think and be challenged
Unwind with a physical, calming activity

Every person should have the opportunity to influence and interact with their environment through movement, exploration and collaboration.

The Parish Council purchased the Mobii Table in 2020 to coincide with the launch of its very successful Memory Café, which is held at the Council Offices, Haydon Wick, Swindon on the second and fourth Wednesday of every month.

Following the benefit to users of the Memory Café the Parish Council has agreed the device could benefit the wider community, such as residents of care homes and pupils at Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) schools to stimulate, calm and provide proprioceptive feedback.

The Mobii Table is an award-winning mobile interactive table/floor projection system with inter-generational appeal. This mobile device can be and projected onto any flat surface, which makes it very accessible for adults and older children in day and home care settings. The system delivers engaging visual activities which provide many opportunities for social enjoyment and shared laughter.
