The main questions it aims to answer are: * What is the effect of CS-ADL on the ability of people with early to middle stage dementia to carry out their everyday activities? * What is the effect of CS-ADL on the memory, mood, communication, and quality of life of people living with early to middle stage dementia? Participants will take part in a group program that lasts 7 weeks, with one session per week, lasting two hours. Participants will take part in rewarding and stimulating activities, for example discussion, reminiscence, music, and practical activities such as baking, cooking, gardening. Participants will be asked to complete a variety of questionnaires before and after taking part in the group. Researchers will compare a group receiving CS-ADL to a group receiving their usual care, to explore whether CS-ADL works well in comparison to typical treatment provided by the health services.
