It is that time again - I don't know where the month has gone, but tomorrow is our next peer support group at Newhaven.
People with dementia are welcome along with their carers to meet others, have a chat, share information and experience, and of course enjoy themselves.
We're at Newhaven Extra Care, Tulip Drive, Timperley, WA15 6LW from 10:00 - 1:00.
Just drop in or if you want to speak to us, don't hesitate to call on 0161 746 3944.
On another note, it seems like a good time to remind that the seasonal flu vaccinations are available on the NHS to:
Anyone over 65
The main carer of an older or disabled person (including dementia)
All pregnant women
Anyone in the clinical risk groups as listed on this page: http://mediacentre.dh.gov.uk/2011/09/22/time-to-get-your-flu-vaccine/
Not everyone likes needles, but surely a sharp scratch and a bit of a sore arm are better than a stay in hospital, the stress of finding alternative care and risk of further complications.
Contact your surgery for information on appointments.
