Events

We run free, friendly and informative events for unpaid carers. You will find regular coffee mornings and peer support groups where you can meet up with other like-minded carers to discuss concerns around dementia care. We host groups for former carers, young onset dementia carers, male carers and a living grief and bereavement group. 

You will also find sessions for our Carer Development Programme here. This covers topics such as prioritising your emotional well-being and advice for advocating for yourself and the person you care for. Find out more about all our sessions here.

Living Environment

Are you involved in caring for someone with dementia? Join us to find out what changes you could make in your home and other settings to support the person you are caring for.

Our members, who have cared for their loved ones, will share with you information about the successful changes they have made in their homes. There are many things you can do to help create a familiar and comfortable environment for the person you care for. Come find out about what other carers have found to be a huge help!
