What are Dementia Support Groups?

A dedicated supportive space for those looking after someone with dementia. It’s an opportunity to meet people in a similar situation, that understand what it's like to look after a friend or family member with dementia. Conversations vary at each session and are guided by an experienced facilitator. They are informal and relaxed, perfect with a cuppa and some biscuits!

There are lots of benefits to joining a Dementia Support Group. Explore our Carer Stories to hear from others who have joined the sessions. The support group provides dedicated time for you, away from your caring responsibilities. You can share your experiences, gain knowledge and peer support from others and meet wonderful people.
