National Lottery Awards for All

We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve received a 'National Lottery Awards for All' grant to support our Living and Learning Dementia project commencing in the Spring! 

At the heart of our work is bringing people together in warm, familiar spaces where they can relax, engage, and connect and now, thanks to this funding, we can expand our services to offer a new, specially designed safe garden space 

.Gardening is more than just a pastime, it awakens the senses, stimulates memory, and gently encourages physical movement. For those living with dementia, this can reduce anxiety and depression, improve cognition and mood, and enhance overall quality of life. It is such a great activity for all!In 2023, we supported 1,500 beneficiaries, including 400 individuals diagnosed with dementia.

Now, we’re aiming even higher, increasing our reach by 10% in 2025/26 to meet the growing need for our work.We are so grateful for this opportunity to continue evolving our services based on the feedback of our wonderful beneficiaries and their carers. Together, we’re making a real difference!Our project was made possible thanks to #NationalLottery players’ and a huge thanks to The National Lottery Community Fund 

 Stay tuned for updates as we bring this project to life!
