Today is a day that Say It With A Smile will always treasure.
Our very first ‘Early-Onset’ group met at Burstons Garden Center for tea / coffee & cakes, followed by a fun flower arranging session!
????
Dementia very sadly affects not only older people: there are a growing number of people under 65 being diagnosed.
????
A dementia diagnosis impacts an entire family no matter what age the person is. Under 65 the effects on a younger family are heartbreaking.
*Partners still working have to juggle the caring role of a loved one and a full-time job.
*Teenage / young adult children become carers to their own parents.
????
It is vital to provide relevant and bespoke support groups for people with an early-onset diagnosis.
????
We will be meeting:
????2nd & 4th Tuesday afternoons of the month.
All our outings will be chosen by our families.
????️If you know of anyone who needs support and would be interested in attending please email:

⭐️Huge thank you to all the staff at Burstons for looking after us all:
we will be back!⭐️
