A Smarter ‘Now and Next’ Board? Abilia MEMOplanner Review

Описание: In this episode, Dan and Dwayne take a hands-on look at the Abilia Memo Planner; a wall-mounted digital planner designed to support people with learning disabilities, acquired brain injuries, and additional support needs.

If you remember the old “Now and Next” boards, laminated planners, and activity sheets stuck on the fridge, this is the modern evolution. We explore how the Memo Planner helps break the day into clear, visual steps using timelines, colours, images, checklists, reminders, and spoken prompts.

The guys talk through:

✅ How the planner works in real time

✅ Setting up activities and routines

✅ Breaking tasks down into manageable steps

✅ Using images, alarms, and voice prompts

✅ Supporting independence and person-centred planning

✅How it can be used in care homes, supported living, or family homes

This isn’t just a product demo, it’s a conversation grounded in real care experience, comparing what we used to use with what’s possible now.
