About
Peer support groups give carers of people with dementia the opportunity to meet with others who understand some of what they are going through. Run by a facilitator, the sessions offer a chance to ask questions, get information and share experiences in a safe and supportive environment.
Activity groups give people affected by dementia the opportunity to take part in structured activities. Run by a facilitator who encourages and supports people to take part, the groups are also a chance to relax and socialise.
At this time both sessions run together, so the carer can go to the peer support group and the cared-for the activity group.
4th Tuesday of the month, 18:30 - 20:30.
