Supporting our communities

Forget Me Not Buddies operates a weekly club at Denton Methodist Church, offering a range of engaging activities for its 77 members, most of whom attend weekly. From dance sessions to bingo and quizzes, the club creates a supportive environment for those affected by dementia to socialise and enjoy various recreational activities.

Additionally, the charity organises monthly outings to destinations like Blackpool, Chester and the Lake District, providing members with memorable experiences and opportunities to connect outside of their regular routines. These outings foster a sense of community and enjoyment for both members and volunteers alike.
