Special event for people with memory loss

A special event to hear about people’s experiences of memory loss and to find out more about what help is available is being held in Royal Wootton Bassett next month.

The event, which is being organised by the Royal Wootton Bassett and Cricklade Area Board, is open to anyone who suffers from memory loss, their carers, support groups, as well as friends and family.

It will be held on 2 March 2012 at the Marsh Farm Hotel from 11am to 3pm.

Area board member, Jacqui Lay, said: “We have organised this event to find out more about the experiences of people who live with memory loss and the experience of those who look after and care for them. It will be an opportunity for people to share the challenges they face and their ideas and aspirations for the future. They can hear how other people in similar circumstances are managing and they can find out more about what help is available, or what they would like to receive, in the area."
