Do you have a loved one living with dementia?

Caring for someone with dementia is not easy. Enliven can support you in your role as a carer. Our dementia-focused day service provides a place where those living with dementia can engage with other people and enjoy activities that help maximise their independence.

Our dementia-focused day service activities include:

  • gardening
  • exercise, including walking and tai chi
  • cooking and meal preparation
  • outings to places of interest in your community
  • music and dance
  • singing
  • games and activities
  • stimulating conversation and company.

Where to start:

  • Contact an Enliven site listed below to find out which day service is right for you or your family member.
