Support and a listening ear at the Forget Me Not Café

The Forget Me Not Café in Okehampton is a social group for people with memory problems and their carers, where they can come and meet others, have a cup of tea, cake and a chat with people that are in a similar position, in an accepting and friendly environment.

The atmosphere is very relaxed and the aim is to provide a place and time where those who have memory problems and their carers can just chat and be at ease.

There are several volunteers who understand what people are going through and can provide a listening ear and help where they can.  Information is also provided for people with memory problems and related issues at the café.

There is usually a complementary therapist on hand to give short therapy sessions and also professionals that you can talk to if you wish.

The Forget Me Not Café meets on the last Tuesday of every month, except December, between 2pm and 4pm, at the Glen Community Room in Castle Road, Okehampton - just past the Post Office, turn into Castle Road, continue over the little bridge and you fill find The Glen on the right. Café dates in March and April are on 27th March and 24th April.
