A HUGE thank you to our friends Simon and Steve who just swam the artic circle to raise money for Alzheimer Café Isle of Wight. What an incredible achievement and their donation will go such a long way!
We have a new blog all about having the difficult conversations with your children about dementia.
We really hope this helps, and if you have any worries or questions about this topic, please feel free to come to any of our cafés or to get in touch here.

We just wrapped up a powerful session 'This is my story - what's yours?' at our involvement event. Real conversations shared by people living with dementia of their personal journeys, at different stages of dementia, from diverse backgrounds and communities. (1/2)
We've also got 2 people raising money for us by swimming the arctic circle! How incredible is that!?

#AlzheimerCaféDaily will be a place offering support for people both before and after receiving a diagnosis, a place for education and info, with an engaging programme of daily activities which provides respite and support for carers #dementiasupport #alzhiemers
We're excited to join Twitter!
A bit about us... Alzheimer Café Daily will be a place where people can come together, meet for a cuppa, and feel totally at ease because everybody there is “in the same boat”
We're here for anyone touched by dementia.
