Memory Cafes have developed through good local collaboration, working in partnership to support people with dementia and their family carers and involving the NHS, social care and the third sector.

The people who attend the Cafes highly value them for:

  • Social Inclusion
  • Peer Support
  • Crisis Prevention
  • Information
  • Stimulation
  • Coping Strategies
  • Advice and Education

The number of memory cafes in Devon is still growing - currently there are 44.

This is welcome news for people with dementia who are now able to get support from these drop-in memory cafes across Devon.
