Keeping connected to the local community is vital for people living with dementia in Icklesham and surrounding areas. Our Care Professionals regularly accompany clients to the beautiful Icklesham Memorial Hall events where the friendly atmosphere and community spirit provide wonderful social opportunities. We’ve found that trips to nearby cafes and events offer our clients meaningful social interactions, while visits to the local Alzheimer’s and Dementia Supporter charity shop often spark wonderful conversations and memories. For those who enjoy nature, we frequently arrange gentle walks along Icklesham’s countryside paths, where the fresh air and familiar landscapes provide both cognitive stimulation and a sense of peace.
We are led by Caroline Aherne, who founded our Bexhill-on-Sea service in 2016 with a commitment to providing exceptional dementia care throughout the area. Our manager, Tyne Sugden, brings authentic understanding to her role, having started as a Care Professional herself. The family nature of our business is genuine, Caroline's daughter Louise Aherne works alongside us, handling scheduling and the crucial process of matching the right Care Professionals with clients. This genuinely personal approach carries through into our commitment to the local community network. We regularly attend partnership meetings across Bexhill, St Leonards and Hastings areas, working collaboratively with healthcare professionals and community groups to enhance dementia awareness and support. Our monthly Companionship Café in Bexhill, held on the fourth Friday of each month, has become a valued resource for both those living with dementia and their families. The success of this initiative has inspired us to develop similar gatherings in St Leonards, Hastings and Battle, creating more local spaces where people can find understanding and connection.
