Halloween for someone living with dementia can be confusing, even frightening. Loud knocks at the door, strange costumes and unexpected visitors can cause anxiety or distress. Please only knock on doors of houses that are decorated. A small act of kindness makes a big difference.

We've had a hectic 2 weeks. A huge thank you to everyone who took part, donated, baked, walked, played golf or simply came along for a chat. Your support means the world to us – especially now, when fundraising is more important than ever with the grant funding pot so small.
