About this event

The sessions run for 10 weeks starting Wednesday 16th July 2025, between 10:30 – 12:00, and will take place in person at the Ararat Baptist Church, Whitchurch, Cardiff. CF14 1PT

The types of sessions that are covered will vary over the ten week period and various guest speakers will be invited.

There will be a chance to discuss shared experiences, the positives and challenges of being a carer and the opportunity to share tips and coping strategies. There will also be some sessions where guest speakers will be offering information and advice on subjects that may be of help.

(We will be running an activity group alongside, in a separate room, which the person you care for is more than welcome to attend at the same time).

If you would like to participate in the 10 week session please email: Effro@platfform.org to book your place or register here on eventbrite.

If there are certain sessions you would like to attend, you are welcome to book on for those weeks only.

As the sessions are being held in person.

Changing perceptions of dementia.

At Effro, we believe that recognising the needs, preferences and individuality of each person living with dementia creates opportunities for a better life. we work with individuals to explore the things they’re interested in. We provide a safe and supportive framework for people living with dementia to focus on the most enjoyable aspects of their lives: reflecting on happy memories, revisiting favourite places and reigniting personal passions.

We offer a variety of support services to individuals living with dementia in communities throughout South Wales, and provide practical advice and resources to support anyone looking to provide activities or group sessions for people living with dementia.
