Closer to Home dementia clinics

Face-to-face appointments with a specialist nurse in a location near you

Dementia UK, in partnership with Leeds Building Society, is bringing specialist dementia support closer to home with face-to-face clinics visiting a location 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.

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

All appointments are strictly confidential.
