Wander Freely – Frongoch

Trialling digital technology that will increase the independence of individuals living with dementia or learning disabilities.

‘Wander Freely’ aims to trial and test digital technology in the care sector to increase the independence of individuals living with Dementia or with learning disabilities.

The project is expected to contribute to the wider work being done in the Gwyrfai area to create a ‘dementia friendly community’. The project has been developed in conjunction with representatives from Gwynedd Council and the local business community.

5 ‘Wandersafe’ gadgets were installed at Frongoch Center in November 2018. The pager is given to the carer while the person with Dementia wears the sensor either around their neck or as a bracelet. If the person with Dementia walks too close to the front door then the pager rings. The pilot will run until January 2020.
