Memory cafes are a place to relax and spend time with others who understand what you guys are going through in a social setting. Have a cuppa and chat for an hour or two with others who have experienced life with dementia.
Memory cafe is an option for carers/families and loved ones to enjoy the ongoing support of others who have similar experiences as yours. Just as our loved one moves through this journey, so do carers, families and friends. Memory cafe is another step for carers on their path to coping with the grief and pain of living with dementia.
