A clutter-free environment may not help people with dementia carry out daily tasks – according to a new study from the University of East Anglia.
Researchers studied whether people with dementia were better able to carry out tasks, such as making a cup of tea, at home - surrounded by their usual clutter - or in a clutter-free environment.
They were surprised to find that participants with moderate dementia performed better when surrounded by their usual clutter.
But the different environments made no difference to people with mild and severe dementia, who were able to perform at the same level in both settings.
