For many, the cross is a sacred object that communicates beyond words and is a comfort to both the person with dementia and those providing care and support.
These comfort crosses are handcrafted in Bethlehem out of olive wood, usually sourced from the normal pruning of branches that is part of the growing cycle.
They are light, smooth and fit easily into the palm of the hand to be held or gripped comfortably.
Each cross comes in a velvet pouch with a prayer card.
