Here, we report findings from the Swedish field site of an international 5-year project: Neighbourhoods: our people, our places. The aims of this study were to investigate the lived experience of the neighbourhood for people with dementia and through this to better understand the meaning that neighbourhood held for the participants. In this study, we focus on the walking interviews which were conducted with 14 community-dwelling people with dementia (11 men and 3 women) and were analysed using an interpretative phenomenological method. Four themes were revealed from these interviews: life narratives embedded within neighbourhood; the support of selfhood and wellbeing through movement; the neighbourhood as an immediate social context; and restorative connections to nature. These themes were distilled into the \u2018essence\u2019 of what neighbourhood meant for the people we interviewed: A walkable area of subjective significance and social opportunity in which to move freely and feel rejuvenated. We have found that the neighbourhood for community-dwelling people with dementia holds a sense of attachment and offers the potential for freedom of movement. Our research indicates that a dementia diagnosis doesn\u2019t necessarily reduce this freedom of movement. The implications for practice and policy are considered: future research should explore and pay closer attention to the diverse living conditions of people living with dementia, and not least the particular challenges faced by people living alone with dementia.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1471301218817453","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,12,13]],"date-time":"2018-12-13T00:52:16Z","timestamp":1544662336000},"page":"2199-2219","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":60,"title":["\u2018O\n                    <i>verjoyed that I can go outside<\/i>\n                    \u2019: Using walking interviews to learn about the lived experience and meaning of neighbourhood for people living with dementia"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"19","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8163-5045","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Elzana","family":"Odzakovic","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Nursing Science, Department of Social and Welfare Studies, The Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Link\u00f6ping University, Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ingrid","family":"Hellstr\u00f6m","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Nursing Science, Department of Social and Welfare Studies, The Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Link\u00f6ping University, Sweden; Ersta Sk\u00f6ndal Br\u00e4cke University College, Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Richard","family":"Ward","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Social Science, University of Stirling, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Agneta","family":"Kullberg","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Community Medicine, Social Medicine and Public Health Science, Department of Medical and Health Sciences, The Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Link\u00f6ping University, Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,12,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1471301218817453","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10901-017-9558-1"},{"key":"bibr2-1471301218817453","volume-title":"Dementia friendly communities: Global development","author":"Alzheimer\u2019s Disease International.","year":"2016"},{"key":"bibr3-1471301218817453","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3928\/00989134-20100303-02"},{"key":"bibr4-1471301218817453","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/hsc.12226"},{"key":"bibr5-1471301218817453","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.socscimed.2007.05.037"},{"key":"bibr6-1471301218817453","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1332\/policypress\/9781861346117.001.0001"},{"key":"bibr7-1471301218817453","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0144686X07006253"},{"key":"bibr8-1471301218817453","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Board M., McCormack B.
