‘Time to Cook’ club for people living with dementia
About this class
Who’s this for? Those living with mild to moderate dementia who would enjoy cooking together in a sociable atmosphere.
Cooking, eating and spending time preparing a meal can be a wonderful activity to help bring back happy memories of the past or previous knowledge. At our cookery club, participants get involved in preparing a healthy meal, with different dishes each session. We then eat the food together as a shared lunch. Participants may attend alongside a family member, friend or carer if needed. Our course is tailored to the needs and interests of the participants, within a friendly and supportive environment.
When: 6 sessions held fortnightly on a Thursday from 11.00 – 1.00pm
Next course:
14th and 28th April 2022
