     The groups, which we run in partnership with the Alzheimer's Society, offer people with dementia

     and their carers a chance to take part in a structured activity that is carefully designed for those

     with memory problems - and is lots of fun. 

     If you would like to come along as a participant or a volunteer, or to find out more please

      Remember a Charity

      We have joined forces with over 140 other charities in the biggest combined effort of its kind in the UK
      to  promote to the general public the need to remember a charity in their wills.

      The campaign represents large and small charitable organisations from all sectors. The fact that so many      
      charities are pooling their resources and working together is a measure of how vital legacies are to the future
      of good causes in this country.

       At present 67% of the UK population supports charities, but only 4.3% include a charity in their will.
