AN AMAZING VOLUNATRY GROUP


Yesterday, we had a wonderful conversation with Claire from Holt and District Dementia Support.

Their work is an inspiring example of how communities can come together to improve the lives of people living with dementia.

Through their home visiting service, they provide much-needed respite for carers, and their weekly drop-in café offers information, connection, and support for those navigating the challenges of caring for loved ones.

This spirit of connection perfectly reflects the values behind the Dementia Interpreters course and the Dementia Dictionary, creating spaces where people can share experiences, find understanding, and build hope together.

We’re proud to highlight the life-changing work Holt and District Dementia Support do, under the patronage of Sir Norman Lamb, whose support helps shine a light on this vital community service.

While their services are local, their model is one that could inspire similar initiatives elsewhere. You can learn more about their work here: https://www.holtdementiasupport.org.uk/.

🌟 Happy Monday, everyone! 🌟

As we move into this time of year, it’s important to remember that the festive season, while joyful for many it can be especially challenging for people living with dementia.

Changes in routine, busy environments, loud noises, and bright lights can all cause confusion, anxiety, and distress. Even something as simple as rearranging furniture for decorations can make familiar spaces feel unfamiliar and unsettling. For many families, it can also be an emotional reminder of how dementia changes relationships and daily life.

That’s why understanding the world through the eyes of someone living with dementia is so important. The Dementia Dictionary was created to help everyone ie families, carers, and professionals interpret the language and behaviours of people with dementia, turning moments of confusion into moments of connection. 💛

The best part? The Dementia Dictionary is completely free to use and can be accessed by anyone. It offers guidance, real-life examples, and insights that help make this season (and every other season) a little easier for those living with dementia and those who care for them.

Let’s take a moment to slow down, show patience, and spread understanding this winter. Small changes can make a huge difference. 💙

👉 You can download the free Dementia Dictionary app or visit the website to explore the amazing resources available.
