It's Dementia Awareness Week, and we're going to be celebrating some of the amazing work that Meeting Centres around Scotland do every week. First up, Scotland's first Meeting Centre, Kirrie Connections Meeting Centre which opened back in 2019. #DAW2024 youtube.com/watch?v=m2A4ja…

Day three of Dementia Awareness Week, and we had to repost this touching video from Prestwick Meeting Centre. It really shows the impact that the support Meeting Centres have on our members. Good luck in Glasgow, Betty! #DAW2024

In this video from our Get Real project we talk about the role that links with health and social care services and the dementia care pathway can play in the long-term sustainability of a Meeting Centre. #GetRealStudy #referrals youtu.be/aNb6GX0A82k

Join us for a wee bold Blether tomorrow 30th May from 10.30-12pm. bold partner & #dementia activist Agnes Houston will chat to us about how after her dementia diagnosis she decided to get off the 'Misery Bus' and hop aboard the 'Happy Bus'. Look out for the Zoom link! @IrvineDawn

We loved showing all our families the film of our Royal Scottish National Orchestra and Northmuir Primary Generations project this afternoon A few tears were shed! And everyone joined in for YMCA at the end! 🤠👐🫶

'Fun with Chalk' Kirrie Connections Meeting Centre shared by bold partner Rachel Grieve "We spent yesterday afternoon messing about with chalks and exploring the many ways we could make lines and fill spaces." #mindful #doodling with chalk from our amazing #creative #dementia #community @IrvineDawn

We've been delighted to have sladana pavkovic visit for the past couple of days. Sladja was involved in the first Meeting Centre in Australia, and is now looking at setting up a centre in her home country of Serbia. 😊
