Alzheimer Scotland

Alzheimer Scotland new groups in Central Aberdeenshire 

Alzheimer Scotland has started up a Dementia Café in Inverurie, providing an informal meeting place once a month where people who have dementia and their families and friends can meet others in a similar situation and get information and support from each other and from professionals. There are already monthly cafes in Ellon and Westhill, and the people who come to these say that they enjoy the informal atmosphere and the opportunity to make new friends.  The Inverurie café is held on the third Thursday of the month in the Kintore Arms Hotel from 10.30 - 12.30. Cost is £1.95 per person to cover refreshments cost.  To find out more, please contact Susanna Paterson, Alzheimer Scotland's dementia advisor for Aberdeenshire on Tel: 01467 629292 or email: spaterson@alzscot.org
