COMMITTEE MEMBERS - DEMENTIA FRIENDLY ILKLEY

The Ilkley group for dementia awareness and support needs more committee members to help spread the load and energise the work it does in the Ilkley area.

There is a monthly support meeting, and present members need extra hands to develop initiatives to promote dementia awareness. The Ilkley group has a few dementia awareness trainers who offer monthly sessions but the committee would like to do more publicity at events, etc. The time commitment can be as short as one hour a month or as long as individuals wish.
