Memory cafes
Memory cafes offer a friendly, relaxed and welcoming setting where people with dementia and their families and carers can meet others in a similar situation, find out how and where to get help and share stories with others. The memory cafes are run by Alzheimer's organisations, and are held on a regular basis across Wiltshire.
