It offers a moment to take a pause with other carers at a range of stages in their journeys with dementia. With the focus alternating between gently informative and soothing recollections, allowing termly group space to recuperate and recharge.
We invite speakers experienced in their field to present on a particular topic and offer discussion and sharing time to learn from each other.
Carers will be supported…
We are sometimes able to accommodate care for your loved one who is living with Dementia but other times this is not possible. We will always let you know well in advance so that you have time to arrange other care if needs be.
Please get in touch with us if you are interested in finding out more about this group.
"I just wanted to say how much I am enjoying the February edition of Vintage Adventure at Home - it is packed full of interesting things. This is such a great resource for housebound people and I am very grateful to you for thinking of me....."

"Just wanted to say a huge Thank You to you and your colleagues who put together yesterday’s event. Our Residents that came along had a fantastic time, it was lovely hearing all about their day when they got home. Many Thanks."

"Well, it is very uplifting for me as a carer, because I must say, I have felt very isolated. I didn't expect much to be honest, but talking to other carers and others living with Dementia, it uplifts us all. It really does. We have a lovely little community of friends. So Thank you."

Why do you come as a volunteer to help with events like Vintage Adventure in church? …Well, as I’m getting older, I realise that for an awful lot of the elderly, they’ve not got very long left to get to know the lord So I think this generation is the most important ministry. If you’re in with students and you mess it up, they’ve got a whole lifetime when they can met somebody who will correct it. We haven’t got that luxury so this is a very important ministry and I just want to do my little bit.
