Laragh Memory Cafe
One year of conversation, friendship and support, This Friday, Laragh Memory Café celebrates its first birthday here at Brockagh Resource Centre.
The Memory Cafe is much more than a monthly cup of tea. It provides a relaxed and welcoming space for people living with dementia and those who support them - somewhere to meet others, have a chat, enjoy some company and know that you're among people who understand.
Having this kind of support available within our own community is something we're very proud to be part of at Brockagh Resource Centre.
If you know someone who might enjoy or benefit from the Memory Cafe, why not tell them about it - or come along with them this Friday? Fri 9th October 11am - 1pm
Brockagh Resource Centre, Laragh, Glendalough, Co. Wicklow, A98 D3H1 FREE to attend - everyone welcome. And this month there'll be birthday cake too!!
