What's on

Drop in sessions

We have two venues across Bewdley that we use for regular drop in sessions. Details for what happens at each session can be found in their respective venue listings below.

St Annes Church

Location: Load Street

We conduct one lunchtime drop in session per month. At these sessions you may bring your lunch, drink coffee/tea, carryout activities and may listen or participate in music/dance or singing. Carers may go off for 30 minutes to shop or attend an appointment. This will of course be subject to availability of our trained volunteers who will look after the person living with dementia.

Bewdley Medical Centre

Location: Dog Lane

At this once-a-month morning drop-in session attendees will be able to partake of light refreshments. It is conducted in partnership with the medical centre who may make referrals. They are fully supporting this joint venture.

It may also allow carers to attend their own appointments or pop out for a few moments. This will be dependent on our volunteer availability.

No activities will be available at these sessions, but visiting speakers may attend when available to provide updates (for example, hearing specialist/ Chiropodist/Police).
