What is a Memory Café?
Our memory cafes are a relaxed, social space for those who have memory loss or are concerned about memory loss, and their carers. They are run by our team of trained volunteers who create a warm, welcoming environment and are available to offer support and advice.
What can I expect at a Memory Café?
Memory cafes offer a range of activities, and these will vary depending on the preferences of those attending. However, the focus of most activities at a memory cafe will be to encourage reminiscing. This could include music, poetry, photos and quizzes, as well as games and arts and crafts. Sometimes guest speakers may be invited to share their knowledge on topics relevant to people attending the cafe.
Refreshments such as tea, coffee and biscuits are provided.
Do I need to book a place?
Our memory is run by Budleigh GP Surgery nurse Joanne Keeler with the support of Budleigh Salterton Ladies Choir. It is very popular and we need to assess clients before attending. Please give us a call first.
