Our mission is to generate joy and connection for family members of those with dementia.
Based in Kent, we deliver comforting coffee mornings, uplifting classical concerts and fun tea parties in the community.
We also offer 1-1 guidance and information-sharing workshops for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of dementia.
Dementia can be an incredibly isolating and emotionally draining experience for all.
Every situation is unique, with its own set of challenges, however, we firmly believe that by sharing our experiences and being part of a supportive community, joy and hope can be found.

"I think the dementia journey pushes us all to think about difficult things in new ways - life and death, and what it is to be human, what it is to communicate, what it is to connect, what it is to love somebody . That is the experience. It is a real journey that people go on. The way you're approaching it at The Dementia Experience - supporting one another as we try to find a way through what dementia is and remain connected to the people that we love. It's really important." Sarah Metcalfe, Managing Director of The Utley Foundation.
