We’re delighted to announce that Dementia Awareness Day, in association with Home Instead and Heron Hill Care Home, will be back at Beetham Nurseries for 2024!
Dementia affects so many people, one in 14 people over the age of 65 have dementia and these numbers are increasing sharply. Often people don’t know where to go for support and that’s where Home Instead can help.
Join Home Instead here at Beetham Nurseries on Wednesday 18th September from 9.30am where you can experience the life changing virtual dementia tour and learn what help is available in the community — from how to get a diagnosis to funding options and support groups.
Dementia Awareness Day highlights
- Virtual Dementia Tour - the only scientifically and medically proven method of giving a person with a healthy brain the experience of what dementia might be like.
- HARRI Bus - The HARRI bus will also be attending with FREE health & blood pressure checks, and to promote physical and mental health services.
- Home Instead Choir - The Home Instead Choir will also be singing nostalgic tunes with children from local primary schools.
- Support Groups - Home Instead will be here at Beetham Nurseries along with support groups such as our Charity Partner, Carer Support South Lakes
