You can become a Dementia Friend! @ Trees
Oct 21 @ 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm

We’re inviting you to join a social movement and to become a Dementia Friend! To “understand a bit more about dementia, and the little ways you can help.” 

People with dementia get by with a little help from their friends. And anybody can become a Dementia Friend. It’s just about understanding a bit more about dementia and the small things you can do to help people with the condition. People with dementia want to carry on going about their daily lives and feeling included in their local community, but they sometimes need a helping hand to do so. Dementia Friends learn a little bit about what it’s like to live with dementia and turns that understanding into action. This could be helping someone find the right bus or being patient in a till queue if someone with dementia is taking longer to pay. Every action counts!

Join us and Sue, a Dementia Friends Champion, who will deliver an information session on Tuesday 21st October 2014 at 2:00pm – 3:00pm

To book a place, please contact Damian on Damian.Domski@hillhomes.co.uk or 0208 347 3690

Please mind, being a Dementia Friend isn’t about volunteering or fundraising (though you can do that too if you want). For more information please go to: www.dementiafriends.org.uk

Will Information Talk @ Jacksons Lane
Mar 30 @ 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm

Have you thought about making a will?

When we die, our families and friends will want to honour us by carrying out our funeral wishes and they will want to see that our property and possessions are distributed in the way that we have chosen. In both cases, we can take the stress and worry out of these decisions by letting our family and trusted friends know what we want by having a will that specifies our wishes.

Jacksons Lane are holding a will information day on Thursday 30 March at 2pm, at which Rebekah Hillman from Hillman Legal Services (based in Crouch End) will be on hand to offer advice and insight and answer any questions you may have.

From Help Refugees’ mission statement:

“Help Refugees is not simply another aid organisation. We work where governmental and other non-governmental bodies can (or will) not, filling the gaps and providing emergency aid and vital services to those affected by the global refugee crisis. We act fast to get aid and services directly and immediately to the people who need it most by identifying the most effective grassroots groups, local people, individual volunteers and refugees themselves active in the crisis and providing them with funding and support, enabling them to focus their time and energy on the vital work they do every day. Help Refugees are also operational where needed across Europe providing our experienced teams to maintain quality services and uphold dignity for refugees.”

“For many years I have admired Idit as both a singer and a teacher of singing: she brings to all her musicmaking a lively professionalism and integrity, coupled with the gift of communication which inspires others to aspire to the same high standards. I have witnessed her in action as a teacher and have seen how quickly she can achieve positive results with committed students by pinpointing the specific areas of development relevant to each individual singer – the singers themselves are frequently surprised at the speed of their progress under Idit’s tuition. I enthusiastically recommend Idit as an exceptional teacher who commands international respect.”
