Guest speaker Jim talks of his work at The Dementia Cafe


On 21st September, Hawick Rotary welcomed Jim Sykes of the Dementia Cafe who told us of the origins of the project and how it has evolved over time. Members were very much impressed by his account and were full of praise for the work being done, both in helping those with dementia and providing respite and support for their family and carers.
