Hope Community Project in Heath Town in partnership with the LGBT+ Sparkle social group will be holding a Dementia Awareness Event next Tuesday, May 14 from 10am until 12.30pm at Hope Community Project at Ling House, Long Ley.
Hope Community Project is a registered charity that has supported people and families in the Heath Town ward since 1985.
As one of the most prevalent health challenges in the UK, Dementia Action Week provides an opportunity to learn about its signs and symptoms and where people can find help and support.
Organisations such as the Alzheimer's Society, Admiral Nurses and Wolverhampton Homes will be in attendance on the day to offer advice and support for those living with dementia and their carers.
