You can also ask a question using the button below.

Do you support a loved one with dementia? Do you sometimes doubt yourself or experience difficult, confusing emotions?

Supporting someone with dementia can feel lonely. I offer clear, evidence-based guidance drawn from many years working as a Dementia Specialist Nurse, alongside connection with a small group of people walking a similar path.

This 10-week course offers clear education, emotional support, and practical understanding to help you adapt without losing yourself.

Together we explore dementia education, identity and adapting to change, communication and behaviour, emotional transitions, and long-term resilience. Each session builds on the last, so participants are encouraged to commit to the full programme, although I do understand the pressures you face and will accommodate this.

I am more honest with myself regarding my limitations. Rather than pretending that I can cope with anything, I now realise I am only human and concentrate on retaining my identity and my own ambitions, despite my responsibility.

Course participant -2025 - 2026

Anyone supporting someone with dementia would benefit hugely from this course – from the information gained but above all the supportive environment.

Course participant 2025- 2026

I have a far greater understanding of dementia and how it can affect people with dementia and also the people around them. I also have a support network of people I met during the course, and Amy is always available too, so I feel more confident for the future especially given the lack of support from GP’s etc.
