Carer support

LOCAL people who care for a relative with dementia are being invited to take part in an information and education programme.

The Alzheimer’s Society is holding four free sessions designed to address the practical needs of carers, to be held at Monkstown Village Centre, with the first taking place at 7.00pm next Wednesay (September 15).

Organisers promise an informal, relaxed atmosphere, with an opportunity to ask questions over a cup of tea.
