Bentham & District Dementia Friendly Community

The Dementia Friendly Breakfast Club will be saying goodbye to our founder Jonathan next week on the 21st May. Our breakfast club is from 10am to 12noon and we plan to give Jonathan a good send off. We are super sad that he is leaving and would like to invite anyone who has been part of the club these last 10 years of Jonathan's reign to say their goodbyes.... On a plus note he is being replaced by Kim, who has learnt a lot from Jonathan over 5 years and cannot wait to takeover the mischief

We would just like to say a huge thankyou to everyone who came to the Dementia coffee morning at the townhall this month! We raised a fantastic £450 for Bentham & District Dementia Friendly community and had a fantastic time in the process! Thankyou to all who volunteered and donated ❤️

Our wonderful group have been preparing the posters. All we need is you and your loved ones!
Why not come along on the 14th February to our coffee morning starting at 10am.
Between 10am -12pm we will be raising funds for the Bentham and District Dementia Friendly Community through Tombola, cake sale, Raffle and more!

Do you have anything you could spare for our tombola?
Maybe you are a dab hand at baking? If so please feel free to bring any goods to the Bentham Surgery for the attention of Jonathan Scott by the 13th Feb!

We cant wait to see you x

We had such an amazing time at the BDDFC annual Christmas party yesterday. Thankyou to all that attended. A huge thanks to Caroline and the choir for the wonderful Christmas songs and to Jonathan, Sarah and Louise who are great at organising the community events. Mandy's food was delicious as always and we even had Lisa and (ahem) Santa involved. (All I am saying is we didn't see Santa and James in the same room!)
