Meet Crdl! Crdl is an innovative instrument, created in the Netherlands, that promotes meaningful connection and compassion. The Brenda Strafford Foundation's (BSF) Cambridge Manor is one of the first seniors care sites in North America to use this device as part of our therapeutic recreation programs!

To use the Crdl, two or more users each place one hand on the instrument and their other hand on each other. Crdl magically translates touch into unique sounds, allowing users to experience meaningful memories and emotions.

At BSF, we are an innovative force, providing high quality person-centred care and services to optimize well-being and enrich people’s lives. Devices and technologies, such as Crdl, help us to provide inclusive, meaningful and therapeutic ways for our residents, families, and staff to connect and engage with one another.
