Jane’s Companionship and Dementia Services

Directions

Jane’s Companionship and Dementia Services My mum had Alzheimer’s disease which led to a new career working for charities supporting older people & those living with dementia.

I am passionate about supporting people to live well & retain their independence and I provide respite & support to carers My name is Jane and I have lived experience of dementia. My mum was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease in 2011 and we were left to ‘get on with it’. To learn more about her condition and to support her, I became a befriending volunteer at Alzheimer’s Society. I went on to work as Befriending Manager, Services Manager and Dementia Adviser. I offer a person-centred companionship service, supporting people to remain socially active and engaged in activities they enjoy. This could be visits to groups, cafe’s, watching a film, going out for walks…… I am keen for my clients to feel valued and respected and I hope that they enjoy my visits. I can also support with other things such as paperwork, shopping. I do not offer personal care.
