Dementia Active is a charity with an established track record in providing social activity groups for people with dementia.
Our Vision
A United Kingdom where every adult living with dementia has access to a structured programme of cognitive stimulation and meaningful social interaction - fundamental to managing the impact of the disease and enhancing quality of life.
Our Mission
We aim to build a nationwide network of Dementia Active centres that provide life-enhancing cognitive stimulation and social support. By working alongside families, carers, and communities, we help people with dementia stay connected, capable, and at home in the world they know and love - for as long as possible.
Dementia is an illness which can isolate people from former friends. The value of spending time with others who can share this sense of isolation cannot be overestimated.
● We aim to create a sense of community where no one need feel apologetic or uncomfortable about not being able to do those things which in the past would have been straightforward.
● Conversation is encouraged - both socially, particularly when people arrive and over lunch, but also in more structured reminiscence sessions.
● Group activities are opportunities to be playful.
● The benefits overall are raised energy levels and improved cognition.
As a carer to my husband it was a life saver. It gave me respite a window of time to do something for me, which otherwise does not exist when you are looking after a loved one day and night. For my husband it gave a him a little social time and interaction with other people, something stimulating, enjoyment. This is a very important service.
Peter loved attending Dementia Active, he even danced!, never done before!has always enjoyed singing, surprisingly knew words to most 60's songs. Always looked forward to Tuesdays and Fridays. Attending gave me 2x3hour sessions to myself during the week.
