Dementia Alliance

Dementia Alliance Carer Support Group is a welcoming, inclusive group that meets regularly to support carers of people living with dementia and special needs. We hold monthly carers’ lunches and offer a range of meaningful activities including garden groups, craft sessions, and wellness programs. Our group provides a safe space for carers to share experiences, build connections, and access valuable resources. With a strong focus on lived experience, we aim to reduce isolation and empower carers in their journey. We are diverse, community-driven, and always open to new members looking for connection and support.
