Chill and Chat Group (Self Referral)

Our Chill n Chat Group does not require a referral from Social Work. We only require a confirmation of your diagnosis. The group takes place each Wednesday and you can find further information on the referral form which you can find below.

The groups offer people with a diagnosis to come along and meet with others. We believe maintaining social skills and wellbeing are important to you.

We promote the groups to be as independent as possible,  sharing stories, hobbies, interests, catching up with old friends or meeting with new friends. We often find our groups are a good support for each other.

We can support you to link in with other community led groups which may be of an interest to you and if you wish to access other services or information you feel would help or be beneficial for you, we can support through the process.

We also have groups for people with dementia and their carers or family members to come along, offering respite time for both.

We understand the stresses that can be caused by looking after someone with a diagnosis of Dementia, the group can offer the support,  spending time away from the everyday living and taking time out to chat with others of shared experience or on a one to one with our Support Workers.

We can offer support for you with wellbeing and keeping well, linking you to other services, maintaining the support that is right for you at the right time. We at Dollar Park Dementia Service take pride in offering a warm welcome.
