Lunch Breaks @ The Eric Liddell Centre
A group for carers to attend with the person they care for. We have a two-course lunch followed by activities such as singing, themed reminiscence, poetry & stories, tai chi, guest talks of interest, and more.
Open to carers and the cared for person to attend together. Many of those cared for are living with dementia, though the group is open to other care situations too.
