Social Activities

Note:

Our Memory Club is for people with dementia, their friends, families or carers. The Club is a social gathering once a month where people can drop in to chat, access information and support, meet other people as well as to exchange ideas and experiences. The Club provides an informal, flexible and fun opportunity for people with dementia and their carer or family member to meet others in a supported environment.
