Memory Lane Club
Memory Lane Club is a friendly lively Drop-in serving those in the local Raynes Park/Wimbledon community affected by memory loss/dementia and their carers. 
	This popular club has gone from strength to strength since it first opened its doors in March 2015. Recommended by GPs, right from its opening it has been well supported – news quickly spread across the locality that Sacred Heart Lounge on Edge Hill was the place to be each Wednesday morning between 10.30 and 12.30.
	
	Run by volunteers, all with DBS clearance, the purpose of the club is to provide an informal welcoming space where there can be chat, some fun, laughs and a range of activities for those with dementia and their carers. An additional benefit is the opportunity provided for carers to meet and share experiences with other carers and volunteers, many of whom themselves have had personal experience of looking after a loved one with dementia.
	
	We want to encourage any carers of those with dementia that we are a local resource for them. Please do drop in any Wednesday morning along with your loved one. You will receive a warm welcome, won’t be charged anything and will meet some new people. Give it a go!
	
	Venue: The Lounge, Sacred Heart Church Halls Complex, Edge Hill SW19 4LU
