Peaceful Place is a specialist dementia charity supporting people to remain active, independent and connected to their community. We focus on abilities, not limitations, helping every person attending our day centre to live a meaningful and fulfilling life. We believe everyone living with dementia or Parkinson's has the right to live their best life.
We are looking for volunteers to assist our members living with dementia to take part in the various activities we provide at our day centre including:
- Arts & crafts - a new project is completed each week on Friday mornings.
- Music therapy and choir - lively sessions where our members are encouraged to sing along, play musical instruments and dance if they wish to.
- Yoga - a relaxing chair yoga session
- Friendly discussion groups
- Sports activities - these take place at local sporting and community venues.
