Welcome to ourCommunity

Ten minutes of social interaction a day helps improve the wellbeing for people with dementia.

Umbrella Dementia Cafés is a charity bringing hope, connection and a better quality of life for people living with dementia and their family carer.

We believe the key to personal wellbeing is social connectedness. It’s about having a community support network around you, understanding, accepting and including you.

Umbrella Dementia Cafés are a network of informal and multigenerational community peer support groups, called 'cafés', designed for families and people living dementia to improve social health and well-being.

Through our dementia cafés we empower people living with dementia to regain their autonomy, boost their self-esteem and improve their wellbeing, while providing support to those in the caring role.
