Singing group celebrates first birthday

Bexhill’s popular ‘Singing down memory lane’ group formed by the Bexhill Dementia Action Alliance and lots of incredible volunteers celebrated its first birthday this month.

With a scrumptious cake generously donated to the group by the Cheese and Delicatessen Shop, lots of colourful decorations and an abundance of upbeat songs, members from the Bexhill community came along to sing and dance and join in the celebrations.

The group has been a great success and has played a great part in ensuring that individuals living with dementia and their carers have an enjoyable experience at the group.

A huge thank you to Ronnie and her amazing volunteers for making the group such a happy place to be.

Come along - every other Tuesday 10:30am - 12:30pm at Bagnall Hall, Bexhill Caring Community, 25 Sackville Road, Bexhill, TN39 3JD

£2 per person - carers come free. Raffle ticket and tea/coffee/biscuits included.

Community gets green-fingered for dementia

The Bexhill Dementia Action Alliance has decided to maintain the sensory allotment for the next year.

A great group of committed members have laid a wheelchair friendly path at the allotment and are doing a great job of clearing, tidying and preparing it for next spring!

A big thank you to Bay House who donated bags of bark and volunteers Sally Hemmings and Alan Bearne for continuing to ensure the allotment is dementia friendly.
