Devika Care Company is thrilled to launch a new Dementia Day Centre at Ferrars Hall Care Home in Huntingdon. The first session will be on Wednesday 27th of September at 10am until 3pm. It will then be held weekly on every Wednesday thereafter.
The Day Centre caters for people living with mid to late stages of dementia offering respite for families and loved ones who are caring for someone at home. The sessions offer a range of meaningful activities and opportunities for friendship and companionship. Devika Day Centre is led by Caroline Ignatius who named the company after her mum, Devika, who has been living with dementia for 13 years. Caroline is passionate about dementia care and is devoted to providing support for others who may also be caring for a loved one at home, as this is something she has experienced herself.
‘’Our dementia day centre is here to support and care for those living in the community with mid-late stages of Dementia, who may have additional personal care and behavioural needs. We are so grateful to Ferrars Hall for allowing us to hold these sessions in such a friendly and safe environment. “Commented Caroline
