Longueville Court host dementia café

Taking place on the Frist Wednesday of the month, guests will have a chance to meet other carers supporting others living with dementia. Free to all, the dementia café at the home provides small respite and social support.

This month they had a visit from Kim Gale, dementia adviser from the Alzheimer’s society, who was on hand to answer any questions visitors or residents had.

During the care group session, guests will also have a chance to meet the team at the home, to discuss any questions they might have about care.

General Manager Krzysztof Krzysztofiak said: “We’re really looking forward to making more friends in our local community. The condition itself can be quite lonely and frightening, and the more support we can provide to each other, the better. Our team here at Longueville court. If anyone is unable to make it on the day but would like to pop in for a tour and a cup of tea, our doors are always open.”

Longueville court care home is run by Barchester Healthcare, one of the UK’s largest care providers, which is committed to delivering high-quality care across its care homes and hospitals. Longueville court provides residential care, nursing care and dementia care for 104 residents from respite care to long term stays.
