Services & support
Whilst there are many services across Warwickshire, there are two key services that we would like every Dementia Friendly organisation/community to ensure they know about, and can signpost to.
These are:
Dementia Connect in Warwickshire (Previously known as the Dementia Navigator Service)
A personalised support service for anyone with dementia, their carers, family and friends. The service connects you with free support and advice available by phone and online. Dementia Connect can offer practical and emotional support, a listening ear, suggestions on coping through these difficult times and advice about other services that might also be able to help.
To get support, telephone: 0333 150 3456 (Calls charged at standard local rate) Monday to Wednesday: 9:00am to 8:00pm Thursday and Friday: 9:00am to 5:00pm Saturday and Sunday: 10:00am to 4:00pm

You can also use Dementia Talking Point: Alzheimer’s Society 24/7 online community where people affected by dementia can receive support from people in similar situations.
