What you’ve done for us has got me to the top… it’s put me back where I used to be… what we’ve been doing in here and saying and thinking has done me so good.

Clubs help you to meet other old people but they are also nothing like this. Here we meet other people who also have dementia. Rather than just talking, I’ve been able to learn new things. It’s like gold.

People that spoke to me about dementia always spoke about my loss. Nobody ever said ‘there are things you’ve lost but there are also things you could gain’.
