Arbroath Connections

About

Arbroath Connections offers support to those with mild-mid-stage dementia and their families. We offer a place where individuals, their unpaid carers and families can access expert led support, meet people and take part in a range of stimulating and fun activities. Our centre is open 3 days per week between 10-3pm and we have 15 places available per day. We have a staff team of 4 and are supported by 8 volunteers. Our activities include baking, playing games, which promote physical and cognitive health, stimulating discussions, music and singing sessions and arts and crafts. Carers can access one to one or group support and also benefit from respite knowing their loved one is being cared for in a safe environment. We follow the Meeting Centre evidence based model of support and link in with other meeting centres and Meeting Centres Scotland.
