We are holding a six week block of information and support sessions for families, beginning on Wednesday 26th September 2018. The course which will run for six consecutive Wednesday evenings and is open to anyone caring for a loved one with dementia.
We will explore a range of topics including an overview of dementia, communication, occupation, legal issues and changing relationships. There will be opportunity for open discussions, problem solving, questions and answers sessions space for people to share their experiences if they wish. The sessions are held from 7-9.30 pm in Mallow Primary Care Centre.
Multiple members of a family can attend though we look for a commitment that at least one family member attends each week.

‘We felt lucky to have been able to complete the carers course with you and felt we gained a valuable insight into this condition and how best to be of help’
‘Found whole course very helpful in a relaxed environment. No two dementia sufferers alike, interesting to hear about other peoples experiences’
