The free one-hour session is a discussion led by Dementia Friends Champion, Cheri Orcutt. You’ll learn some basics of dementia such as what dementia is, what it’s like to live with the disease, and some tips for communicating with people who have dementia. Everyone who attends is asked to turn their new understanding of dementia into a practical action that can help someone living in your community. The action can be as big or as small as you choose—every action counts!

Free and open to the public. No RSVP is needed for the Dementia Friends Sessions, however if you have any questions, feel free to email Cheri Orcutt at Cheriorcuttconsulting@outlook.com or call 563-920-8745.

If you can’t make this session, Cheri is offering another opportunity on Saturday March 25th @ 10am at the GNB Bank (Real Estate Building) at 109 N. Tama St., Manchester.
