This study examined the experiences of participating in a recreational golf program offered by the City of Calgary for people living with dementia and their care partner. Participants living with dementia participated in a 12-week golf program with their care partners. The experiences of the care partners, the staff, and the golfer’s experiences were included, considering the social, cognitive, and mental health benefits.
