For those new to the idea of support groups, such groups generally provide information about the disease, education and practical support. They provide an excellent forum for learning how other people have coped with the symptoms of dementia and the life changes the disease causes. Caregivers find it helpful to know that someone else is experiencing similar problems and understands their issues and overwhelm.
Again, all are welcome! All those concerned and connected with the care of persons with dementia are encouraged to participate. For queries, or to confirm participation, call us on 93427 30936 or 080 - 41248448
