Alzheimer's Society Coventry
The Alzheimer's Society Coventry has a Carer Information and Support Programme (CrISP) funded by Coventry and Rugby Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG). There are two different levels running over a series of sessions.
- Level 1 is for carers, family and friends of people recently diagnosed with dementia. Topics include: understanding dementia, legal and money matters, support and care, and coping with dementia day to day.
- Level 2 is for carers, family members and friends of people who have been living with dementia for some time. Topics covered include: understanding how dementia progresses and living well with dementia.
They also run a Dementia Cafe which provides information about living with dementia and other services available locally in an informal and comfortable environment. A Dementia Cafe is also a place to relax, socialise and meet other people with dementia and their carers. This service is joint-funded between Coventry and Rugby CCG and the Council.
Please note that all our sessions are being run as a mixture of face-to-face and virtually at this time.
