Memory Spinners

For people living with dementia

 

Our Memory Spinners groups meet weekly in Glasgow and St Andrews. Using music, storytelling, movement and the visual arts, the programme helps people with dementia and their carers relax, get creative and form new support networks.

Throughout each eight-week term, they share memories that are then incorporated into a relaxed performance for friends and family. 

Meeting dates:

Glasgow
Mondays, 1.15-3.15pm
9 May – 20 June 2022
St Columba’s Church, Hopehill Road, Glasgow G20 7HH

St Andrews
Tuesdays, 2-4pm
26 April – 21 June 2022
Holy Trinity Church Hall, Queens Terrace, St Andrews KY16 9QF

All spaces are free – to find out how to join, contact Rose Ann Gross on 0141 332 9559.
