A group that meets three times a year across different venues.

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…

  • In small table-based groups
  • By our experienced volunteer team
  • Over a light lunch and refreshments

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 come to Vintage Adventure because , being a single person, it’s good to come to places where I meet people and I think in a big church, any groups, be it for young or old to meet people on a much smaller scale is really important like homegroups I think it is very good for the older generation to be catered for because they have certain emphases.

'This is something my husband actually wants to come to. It has been hard encouraging him to leave the house for new things. But he has really enjoyed chatting with some of the other men. It has been hard getting him to stop talking!' I've also found lots of people I had a prior connection with which has been a great surprise'

"You certainly were to me one of life's earth angels. I will never forget the calm that you brought to that moment in my life."

“I like getting out and about, meeting people, having a laugh and a joke, all those sorts of things…”

"Whilst visiting the bereavement group I was handing out the Christmas Prayer cards when one of the recipients mentioned she had been reading her last copy yesterday evening, when she read something that really helped her. She didn't say what it was - but she was blessed!"

On receipt of our Caraway Prayer Cards
