In partnership with North Somerset Council, the Tamar Wellness Centre provides a day service to people over the age of 55 who have a diagnosis of dementia.
Our aim is to provide person-centred support to help people living with dementia to remain independent for longer and provide respite to their carers.
Being a carer can be very rewarding but also demanding and stressful. It is important that those who care for others also find time to care for themselves.
