Looking after someone you love can be rewarding, but it can also be tiring and lonely, and it's easy to put your own wellbeing last. These local groups are there for carers, and for families living with dementia.

Dementia Support at the Trinity Centre
The Trinity Centre on Eastgate has long been home to a dementia group, Memory Matters, for people living with dementia or memory problems, their carers and family members. It's a chance to meet others, share the difficult days and the good ones, and support each other.
Published times vary, so call the Trinity Centre on 01507 605803 for the current day and time before you go. The centre's address is Trinity Centre, Eastgate, Louth, LN11 8DJ.
Company and Befriending
Carers need company too. Our Friendship and company guide lists local groups, including Age UK's friendship group at Elizabeth Court and its free befriending service for people over 50.
