Reading with Dementia is an exciting and vital project delivered by Suffolk Libraries in partnership with The Reading Agency.

The project provides weekly peer support sessions in libraries offering access to books recommended by the Reading Agency to open up discussions about dementia. These groups are open to anyone affected by dementia and include activities that everyone will be able to join in with.

There is no need to register or be referred, you can attend the sessions as often or as little as you like. You are also under no obligation to get involved until you feel comfortable doing so. There will always be a hot drink and a listening ear waiting for you.

For more information about the groups or the Reading with Dementia project, please contact Suffolk Libraries’ Community Champion Coordinator via kayleigh.kent@suffolklibraries.co.uk.
