Spirit of the 60s
40 Extra Large Piece Jigsaw Puzzle

$17.00 USD
OneTribe - Climate Action Counter
Description

The Piecing Together Collection was created to provide those living with dementia, limited fine motor skills or visual impairments with a fun activity that can be enjoyed alone or with a loved one. 850,000 people are estimated to be living with dementia in the UK, a disease that can be isolating for both the sufferer and their family members, friends or carers.

Our goal was to create a puzzle that can bring people together during these difficult times. We undertook thorough research and development when designing this collection, which included care home visits, liaising with Age UK Centres and teaming up with Zoe Wyrko, Consultant Geriatrician and member of the expert team on Channel 4's award-winning TV show, Old People's Home for 4 Year Olds.

The puzzle images were chosen specifically to evoke happy memories from years gone by, to spark conversations with loved ones and reminisce around topics that may be long forgotten. ‘Spirit of the 60s’ is a 40 piece montage puzzle celebrating some of the most loved icons and treasures from the swinging sixties era.

Made in the UK, the puzzles are available in a range of piece counts to suit different abilities and the large, easy to handle pieces are made using 100% recycled board that is the thickest on the market.

About the Artist

Robert Opie Starting at the age of sixteen with a packet of Munchies, Robert Opie saw the need to record the history of everyday products around us and built up a collection that now extends to all aspects of daily life - toys, magazines, technology, travel, souvenirs, fashion and design. His collection can be viewed at The Museum of Brands, Packaging and Advertising. Set out in chronological order in the form of a “Time Tunnel”, the museum gives visitors ‘a trip down memory lane’ and a chance to see how the brands around us have evolved, from the naïve charm of Victorian times to the greater sophistication of today. It also reflects the change in shopping habits, the impact of transportation, media and the effect two world wars have had on our country.
