OUR VOLUNTEERS
The Memory Tree is supported by teams of local volunteers in the places where we run Memory Clubs. It is the friendly warmth of these people that make our Memory Clubs special.
Most of our volunteers have been helping at a Memory Club for many years and have built meaningful friendships with the people with dementia and carers who come to our Memory Clubs.
When living with dementia it makes a real difference to know that there are people who care living nearby. The Memory Tree could not run without the care and commitment of the people named below:
