Dementia charity cafe secures £280k funding
A community hub that supports people with dementia has welcomed extra funding to run its cafe.
The Forget Me Not Cafe is part of the Coventry Dementia Partnership Hub, which opened its doors in Holbrooks two years ago, offering a safe space for those with the condition and respite for their carers.
Thanks to the National Lottery Fund, the Hub has received £280,000 over the next five years to continue the work.
"The cafe is at the heart of the Hub, which adds to a fantastic resource for families and carers to get the support and helps to reduce any stigma of dementia within communities," Councillor Linda Bigham said.
