The support of our dementia services in North Tyneside will help people living with dementia, their carers, and loved ones continue to live fulfilling lives. This is achieved through our Dementia Activities, which offer stimulating and inclusive activities to support people living with dementia and offer a forum of practical advice for their loved ones.

Joe and Steve’s involvement will allow us to reach a wider audience and raise awareness of the challenges of living with dementia, and more importantly the support that is available through their fundraising to continue our much-needed services"
