Alzheimer Cafe
The café is a monthly get together where people with dementia, their families, carers and friends can come together in a safe environment.
Carers, the cared for families and friends will be in the company of other carers, volunteers and professionals.
The aim is to provide emotional support, information, and the opportunity for discussion for people living with aspects of dementia.
The Southern Staffordshire Alzheimer Cafés are run by CASS.
