Groups of local people supporting those with dementia and their carers. Some groups are dementia-specific, others are supportive and inclusive to all. You can expect a warm welcome, some chat and usually light refreshments.
This activity is good for wellbeing because
- meeting people who have similar experiences can make us feel less alone
- living with memory loss, for example, can make socialising difficult but these groups offer understanding and support
- people with similar challenges can share practical tips and signposting to places to seek support
