Dementia Friendly Baildon runs a free drop-in session for those living with or caring for someone with dementia. The drop-in sessions take place on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of every month between 1.30pm and 3pm at the Den, Wesleys Cafe. Free drinks are provided.

How do volunteers get involved?

Volunteers at the drop-in provide company and a listening ear. They may be able to assist visitors, sharing their own experiences of life with dementia, and helping source information about local resources and contacts.

Volunteers come along to our regular meetings held on the first Tuesday of the month at 2pm at Baildon Golf Club. They are then paired with a second person to help at the drop-in.

We also run one off social events during the year e.g. Afternoon Tea, Short walk, Glen Tramway rides, and volunteers are very welcome to get involved in these activities too.
