"It’s Thursday at 10am and preparations are being made for Memory Cafe. For some of us the day starts with a Communion Service. This is open to anyone who wishes to attend and is a great way to start the day. The buzz of conversation and clatter of cups is a reminder that MC is underway! Everyone is welcome; this includes carers, those with memory problems or anyone who wants a cuppa and a chat. 

 

Everyone has a story to tell and MC provides a safe, friendly and supportive space. This is central to the heart of MC and is facilitated by a very willing group of volunteers. Activities include a quiz, exercise with Megan and singing, led by Francis. A selection of pastries and cakes are kindly provided by Nitin. Here are a few quotes from those that attend.... "Very relaxing and supportive, love it" "Has made a big difference to my dad" "It is social, interactive and friendly". 

 

Throughout the year further entertainment has been provided by Sujata Banerjee’s Dance Company and an afternoon Opera Showcase with Nina Kopparhed and Neil Crossland."
