Other Details

Other notes

Initially the sessions were for people living with dementia, their family, friends and carers. After some research we found that isolation, loneliness and depression can be contributory factors to the condition. With that information it was decided that we would open our doors to anyone who felt low in spirit and address the needs and increase the wellbeing of senior citizens in the community.
