This site is dedicated to all the amazing people living with dementia, and their Bubs* (back-up brains), their family and friends who help and support them. Also to everyone who has helped us, both personally and professionally in various ways, to enable us to deliver our groups.
Here you will find information about our groups plus other information we think might be helpful.
