'gather and pray'

Official Dementia Prayer Week logo - please add to your website and newsletters

Welcome to our first blog of 2020,  wishing you a  Happy New Year, hoping the coming year opens doors of opportunity and fulfillment for all.

One of our New Year Resolutions is that the national annual Dementia Prayer Week 12-19th March will reach more people in 2020.  Actually,  it has been one of our resolutions for the last eleven years.  It has grown year on year as parishes and schools, healthcare settings and individuals use our official pack to join in.  Sharing through social media encourages others nationally and overseas. 

This year we plan to make better use of streaming services to reach many more  individuals especially those who are isolated. 

The statistics state that over 800,000 individuals are diagnosed with dementia, the number may be much greater as many do not know how to access help in their struggle with dementia. They may be missing out on spiritual support as well, at this important time in their journey to the fullness of life.

For more information about  Dementia Prayer Week 12-19th March and  our work click on the  link pages  on our website.  There you will also find a variety of resources used by individuals, healthcare settings, parishes and schools  in previous years.  A new official pack is being created and uploaded shortly.

Join with us to touch hearts and change their lives!
