A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our special Christmas film screening. The Plaza Cinema was filled with smiles, warm conversations, and that unmistakable festive spirit that makes this time of year so special.

It was fantastic to see families, carers, friends and members of our community come together to enjoy a classic Christmas movie in a relaxed, welcoming and dementia-friendly environment. Events like this remind us how powerful shared experiences can be — offering connection, comfort and a sense of belonging.

A massive thank you as well to our staff and partners who helped make today possible. Your support ensures we can continue creating inclusive, joyful moments for people living with dementia in Dorchester and beyond.

Here’s to more community, more kindness, and many more magical movie mornings! 🎬❤️
