Brain Health & Dementia Resource Centres are designed to be friendly, accessible environments for everyone to enjoy.

Following the principles of dementia friendly design, we strive to create a local feel, creating a sense of homeliness which we know is important in helping everyone to feel at ease.

People can find out more about Brain Health by having a chat with one of our trained staff. We also offer people living with dementia, and their families and carers, information, advice or support. Each Centre is a base for a wide range of local groups and activities, promoting confidence and well-being.

The length of time is really up to you, but we find that most visits last for about an hour.

You will do a quiz that guides you through the different risk factors for dementia and will highlight what you could be doing better. With our trained staff member, you will create a personalised action plan that will help you think about practical and easy changes you could make to your lifestyle.

This all happens in a very relaxed environment — with a cup of tea if you'd like! You can come back for more support in the future if you want to check in with progress.

We offer the chance to have an informal chat about your Brain Health, find out your own risks for dementia and create a personalised action plan that includes practical tips of small changes you can make.

You can either drop in during our opening hours, or call ahead and book an appointment to make sure one of our staff is available. Check out the map on this page to find your nearest centre.

We invite anyone, no matter your age, to come in for a chat about your Brain Health. It's never too early and never too late to look after your brain.

This may be of particular interest for the families and carers of anyone living with dementia, anyone worried about their memory, someone diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment, newly retired and wanting to protect their brain, or anyone who wants to set themselves up throughout life with the best habits to protect their brain.

No, this service does not diagnose dementia but instead provides Brain Health support.

Everything you discuss with our staff will be treated with confidence, and you can request a private room if you prefer.
