Starting in April, Home Instead Telford is excited to introduce a Memory Café at Broseley Library, providing a warm and welcoming space for those living with dementia and those caring for someone with dementia or memory issues. This initiative aims to create a supportive environment where attendees can relax, socialize, and feel valued in a friendly and understanding setting.
We are delighted that Broseley Town Council and Broseley Library have generously agreed to host these sessions, reinforcing their commitment to supporting those affected by dementia in our community.
What is the Memory Café? The Memory Café is an informal gathering designed to reduce isolation and provide a safe space where dementia does not define the person. It is a peer support group where individuals affected by dementia can connect with others who share similar experiences, while caregivers can find companionship and support.
Home Instead's Community Engagement Lead, Siobhan Davis shared: "We have already established two very well-attended Memory Cafés, and this year, we wanted to expand into additional communities. We understand that groups like this are essential for both caregivers and those living with dementia, offering a space to connect, relax, and enjoy meaningful moments together."
Why Home Instead Telford is Hosting a Memory Café
At Home Instead Telford, we are dedicated to building strong, supportive communities. Our Memory Café will provide a relaxed and non-judgmental space where attendees can engage in enjoyable activities and reminiscence sessions. Caregivers will benefit from shared experiences and a sense of community.
What to Expect at the Memory Café Visitors can look forward to:
A warm, friendly atmosphere with refreshments
Engaging activities, including crafts and games
A chance to share experiences and build friendships
A welcoming space to unwind and enjoy meaningful interactions beyond the challenges of dementia
