A huge thank you to Pete, who ran the Oxford Half Marathon yesterday in memory of his mum, Bernadette, and raised an incredible Β£1,614 for Together Dementia Support. πŸ’œ

Peter bought his own place in the race and chose to run for TDS. We’re so grateful to him, and to everyone who sponsored him.

Every pound raised helps us support people living with dementia and their carers across Manchester.

Feeling inspired? Whether it’s a run, a bake sale or a sponsored silence, you can fundraise for TDS in whatever way suits you. We’d love to help you get started: email [email protected]

Looking for something you can enjoy together? 🎢

Music CafΓ© is a friendly, relaxed session for TDS members and their carers, run with Music in Mind. There's music, instruments to have a go on, a cuppa and a chat. Plenty of people come along not knowing what to expect and end up joining in.

We'll be at this event, explaining to visitors how we can support carers and provide great activities for people living with dementia. We'll also be telling people about our volunteering opportunities. It looks like a really interesting and informative event. Hope to see you there!

Today is World Mental Health Day.

At our carers' well-being evening in summer, we asked carers to write a piece of advice for another carer having a hard day. This is one of the cards:

"Give everything extra attention and breathe!
5 things you can see. Describe them.
4 things you can touch. Describe them.
3 things you can hear.
2 things you can feel.
1 thing you can smell.
Brings you into the exact moment and focuses your mind."

To every carer reading this: we hope it helps on the tough days. πŸ’œ

As the evenings get darker, some people living with dementia become more restless, anxious or confused later in the day. This is often called "sundowning".

If you're caring for someone who gets agitated, it can be upsetting and exhausting. Our new blog has practical tips on spotting patterns, keeping evenings calm, and knowing when to get extra help.

One thing to look out for: if agitation comes on suddenly, over a few days, it could be delirium, often caused by an infection. Contact the GP or NHS 111.

πŸ‚ Harvest Festival Season at TDS groups! 🍎

This week, Harvest Festival has been the theme across our Friendship & Activity groups, a time to be grateful and enjoy seasonal treats from the ground.

🍏 Moss Side group baked a delicious apple crumble
🍲 East Manchester group served up a spicy Caribbean Saturday soup, packed with healthy root vegetables and thyme

Activities like these give our members a chance to build and practice daily living skills, and communal eating brings people together in a way that's so good for wellbeing.

Grateful for good food, good company and the changing season. 🧑
