Care company launches Free 'Key to Care' sessions

The sessions, provided by Home Instead Lewes District & Uckfield, will provide advice and support on a range of topics.

Families across the local community will have free access to information around support for an ageing parent of family member.

The first session will be an informational forum, focusing on understanding dementia. With external speakers coming along to share their knowledge and experience, the sessions will provide the opportunity to get answers to questions and feel informed when it comes to taking the next step.

Guests at the session include Lauren Puttock-Brown from Mayo-Wynne Baxter Solicitors and Paula Ryan from Westerham Financial Services (also a society of Later Life Advisers financial planner), plus another very special guest, to be announced.

Alison Scutt, Owner of Home Instead Lewes District & Uckfield said: "As a home care company providing support to individuals in our community with Dementia, we feel it's our duty to raise awareness of the condition across the local area and the sessions are the perfect opportunity to do so.

"The sessions are free to attend and a place where older people, their carers or family can come along and ask any questions they may have in a relaxed environment, cheese and a glass of wine will also be provided!"

Whilst free, spaces are limited at the first session, which takes place at The Dorset Pub in Lewes on Thursday 20 July from 6.30pm to 8.30pm. Booking is required by calling the Home Instead office on 01273 437 040 or by emailing info@lewes.homeinstead.co.uk.
