The idea behind the event was for the dementia adviser from the Alzheimer's Society to meet with residents and other interested groups to talk about the Durham County Council-funded outreach and drop-in services to be developed throughout East Durham.
We have offered to supply the society with a list of suitable venues in the villages in our ward, along with contact details of any local organisations that might be interested in hosting dementia sessions in their community.
Please get in touch with us if you think your community would benefit from any services offered by the Alzheimer's Society and we'll pass on all details to the dementia friends coordinator for our area.
