We hold monthly discos in the Stockport, UK, area at the weekends, in the early evenings. They are free to attend, and we provide a free meal. Carers, friends and family welcome. We also bring discos to care homes for people who are unable to attend a venue-based disco.
This donation will help to increase the resources we have to be able to put on more free to attend discos and to coordinate more care home discos.
The Benefact Trust's generous donation of £5,000 is a fantastic boost, enabling Dementia Disco to extend our reach and bring the joy of music and connection to more people living with dementia, their carers, family and friends. This vital donation will allow us to host additional free-to-attend discos in community venues and coordinate more of our popular discos within care homes, making a real difference to well-being, both physically and mentally and reducing social isolation.
