Hello everyone,
My mum has recently been diagnosed with Alzheimer's. As a relatively young person myself with a full time job I quickly realised that there was nowhere in my local area to meet people who are going through the same thing and so I'm setting up a network myself. We meet once a month in the evening at a local pub. The idea is to have a place to go for some peer support or to just go and be in a space where you don't have to explain how you feel but know there are others that understand. Well I say we but so far the group consists of me, my sisters and my mums nurses who are helping set things up. I want to advertise the group so people know we are there but I need a name and I'm stuck! The best I came up with was younger persons dementia network but that isn't very catchy nor does it really sum up what it's about. If anyone has any ideas I'd be really grateful for suggestions so I can get on with making posters and telling everyone about it.
Thanks,
Laura
