Friendship and support for people living with dementia
What we do
We now run 3 social sessions every week to provide support and facilitate social interaction, both for the person living with dementia and their carer.
Within these sessions we run ‘Let’s get Moving’ once a week to encourage better movement and coordination. As well as addressing the “not moving enough” problem we have fun! We also have two sessions a month that include music, singing and sometimes dancing for those who wish to express further, with Tai Chi once a month.
Why we do it
Prior to the formation of DAM there was limited support for those living with dementia and their carers in Marlow and the surrounding areas. Marlow has an older population profile. It is estimated that there are currently around 7500 people living with dementia in Buckinghamshire.
In addition to providing weekly social sessions we are committed to supporting the campaign for more specilaist dementia nurses and improved local support services.
