The Young Dementia Carers group is a friendly group for carers supporting someone Under the age of 65 with dementia.
Join Nikki & Nashima at the the younger people with dementia carers group for an interactive self-care session for Carers Week 2024. You will learn bite-size tips to look after yourself when your time is limited and take away some helpful resources. Booking essential.
The group aims to offer support and advice from like minded carers in similar situations to themselves. Carers Leeds and Community Links are working in partnership to provide a new day service for younger people with dementia.
The sessions are based at the Young Dementia Leeds Hub every second Saturday of the month at 11am and run for about an hour. Carers can bring their loved ones with them who will be supervised by the Hub’s staff whilst the Carer is in the support group. After the session ends, Carers can rejoin with loved ones in the main room of the Hub and enjoy the Dementia Cafe together from 12pm -2pm
Please ring the advice line to arrange a chat with the group organiser ( Nashima ) before attending a group for the first time. Advice and support will not be available on a drop in basis but can be arranged prior to attending the group.
Alternatively please contact Nashima on 07375 897 048 or email nashima.choudhury@carersleeds.org.uk to let her know if you would like to attend.
