Volunteer to support our new dementia appeal?
Our charity is fundraising to create the first ever dedicated dementia garden at Croydon University Hospital and we are looking for volunteers to help us organise fundraising events in the local community. Could you help?
Over 3,500 people in Croydon are living with dementia and over 74% of Croydon residents aged 65 and over have a dementia diagnosis.
The project will be located within the Acute Care of the Elderly Unit (ACE) and will be accessible to patients affected by dementia across Croydon Health Services NHS Trust.
It will deliver a new dementia-friendly care environment, including garden and therapeutic space to host activities such as gardening, singing and music. The charity appeal will fund a significant amount of groundworks e.g. drainage, as well as furniture e.g. seating, lighting, plants and secure access.
