Lost for words? Wolverhampton care home to host dementia advice event

A care home in Wolverhampton is inviting the local community to its free dementia advice event.

On Tuesday 10th March at 10.30am–12pm, Care UK’s Foxland Grange, on Wergs Road in Tettenhall, will be holding a special session as part of The Big Dementia Conversation – a nationwide initiative designed to show people how to better understand common symptoms and how it is possible to live well with the condition.

The ‘Understanding Dementia’ event at Foxland Grange will be led by dementia expert members from the Alzheimer’s Society in Wolverhampton. The session provides an opportunity to learn more about dementia, how it can affect people as they age and what carers can do to support a loved one living with the condition.

In addition to the event, the Wolverhampton community can explore a newly launched online advice hub, which features in-depth conversations with families of people living with dementia alongside expert advice from Care UK’s specialists. They can also obtain a free guide packed with practical tips and designed to help relatives overcome communication barriers and interact more easily and confidently with loved ones living with the condition. To find out more, please visit careuk.com/bigdementiaconversation.

Foxland Grange provides full-time residential, dementia and nursing care, as well as short-term respite care, in a luxury environment. Designed to enable residents to lead active and fulfilled lives, while also promoting independence, the home incorporates plenty of space for leisure activities and hobbies, and has its own café, hair and beauty salon and gardens. The building has been configured into a series of neighbourhoods to facilitate the creation of close-knit communities and encourage social interaction among the residents.
