Activity groups
Our Activity Groups are for people affected by dementia.
You can come along and take part in activities in a relaxed informal environment, chat with others in a similar situation and get support from staff members and volunteers.
If you would like to attend one of the Dementia Cafes or have an interest in joining Singing for the Brain, then please contact one of the group facilitators in the Derbyshire Dementia Support team on 01332 208845 or you can email us at derbyshire@alzheimers.org.uk.
These groups are very popular so please contact us to book a place.
