CDKTN is proud to introduce our Artist in Residence, Christina Martin. We have developed a PowerPoint presentation of her latest hit with lyrics, Remember Me.

Christina says, "My mission is to write lyrics that honour people affected dementia: care providers, care givers, and people living with the disease. I teamed up with Dale Murray to write and the song 'Remember Me'. During this Artist in Residence Program my job is to learn as much as I can about the disease and the people it affects, and then write songs that will be a useful tool for transferring information to people."

Stay tuned to CDKTN for more from Christina Martin.
