Caring for a loved one with dementia can be an emotional journey, and you don't have to navigate it alone. Our Dementia Support Café offers a welcoming, informal, and understanding space to step away from your routine and connect with others on a similar path. Come along to enjoy a warm cup of tea, share your experiences with fellow carers who truly understand, and speak with visiting experts. Whether you need practical advice, guidance on navigating local services, or simply a comforting chat, you will find a supportive community ready to welcome you.
This weekly café is primarily designed for unpaid family carers, friends, and neighbours who are supporting someone living with dementia, Alzheimer's, or cognitive decline. It is an inclusive, non-judgemental space where you can focus on your own wellbeing, find mutual peer support, and access professional guidance to help you feel more confident and supported in your caring role.
Expert Advice: Alongside peer support, this café regularly features visits from dementia specialists and support workers to help answer your specific questions in a relaxed, private setting.
Hospitality: Hot drinks and biscuits are kindly provided on-site.
How to Join: There is no need to book or register in advance—please feel free to just drop in whenever you are able to make it.
Cost: Free to attend.
