We support people with dementia in Scotland to make sure nobody faces dementia alone

Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit our Alzheimer Scotland Borders JustGiving page. We are a small team supporting people living with dementia, and their families across the Scottish Borders. Our support has dramatically changed due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and whilst we are no longer able to run our face-to-face groups, we have gone digital!

We are still providing much needed advice, information and emotional support, through telephone, e-mail and virtual support. We are running weekly online activity groups to bring people together via technology to engage in social activities and peer support. These include Dementia Dog Bingo; Musical Memories, Quizzes, and Carer and Family Support Groups. We are also offering one-to-one online surgeries with our Dementia Advisor; telephone befriending; weekly activity videos; and online awareness training.

None of this much needed support would be possible without your kind and generous donations, which we are incredibly grateful for. If you would like to support us during these difficult times, please consider making a donation. Every little helps towards keeping our services available in the Scottish Borders. Thank you.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
