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.

TO EVERYONE INVOLVED IN THE CREATION OF HOLIDAY AT HOME - "A TASTE OF SPAIN" Many thanks indeed for such an enjoyable time - and a delicious meal! The children's performances were wonderful!

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.

You do see your friends and neighbours, all being brought in. It’s a relaxed atmosphere . It means you do feel included in the church family. We’re a very close family and have friends of friends of friends, but the young people, they don’t have anybody . It continued church as I haven’t been so well lately after a fall. My balance is poor and my voice isn’t what it used to be, and I love to sing. I always knew when it was time to get up as I could hear Grandma in the kitchen, she sang.

It was really well planned, food very nice - so HUGE thanks to all involved in any part of the day - we thought it was great and huge fun learning the Haka! The young lady teaching us was really good and had us all laughing about it!. The whole day is something to remember with much pleasure."
