Dementia UK is bringing specialist dementia support closer to home with face-to-face clinics in a branch of Leeds Building Society near you.
If you care for someone who has dementia or live with the diagnosis yourself, you can book a free 45-minute appointment with a dementia specialist Admiral Nurse for expert, tailored support, whatever your questions or concerns.
Our dementia clinics are taking place in branches of our partner, Leeds Building Society, across the country. All appointments are confidential and will be held in a private space within the branch.
Our nurses offer advice and support with any aspect of dementia, including:
- worries about memory problems and other possible symptoms of dementia
- how to get a diagnosis
- understanding the diagnosis and how the condition progresses
- practical tips for caring for someone who lives with dementia
- adapting to and coping with changes in behaviour
- financial and legal issues
- transitions in care, including moving into residential care
- emotional support, including anticipatory grief, bereavement and loss
Our Closer to Home service has now ended, but you can still book an online appointment.
All appointments are strictly confidential. You can view our privacy policy and our Closer to Home terms and conditions.
