Alzheimer's Society NEL

Alzheimer’s Society is the UK’s leading dementia charity. We give vital support to those who need it, fund groundbreaking research, and campaign to improve experiences. It will take a society to beat dementia.

Our Local Services:

  • Pre-diagnostic support service – for anyone experiencing mental health concerns about their memory, including those who are within the Navigo Memory Assessment Service.
  • Dementia Support Service – Personalised information, guidance, and ongoing support for individuals diagnosed with dementia, as well as for their families and carers.
  • Side By Side (SbS) Service – Through our dedicated coordinator, volunteers are matched with people living with dementia to provide one-to-one companionship. This service helps individuals stay active, enjoy local activities, reduce loneliness, and remain socially connected.
  • Memory Cafes – We host three welcoming cafés each month in Cleethorpes, Immingham, and New Waltham. These friendly, informal groups offer a safe space for people living with dementia and their carers to meet, socialise, and build supportive friendships.
  • Weekly Social groups – Delivered in partnership with Creating Positive Opportunity, these groups are open to anyone with a dementia diagnosis or memory concerns, along with their carers.
  • Carers Information and Support Programme (CrISP) A series of group sessions providing practical guidance and advice on all aspects of caring for someone with dementia.
  • Dementia Advisory Group – An opportunity for people with lived experience of dementia to share their insights and help shape and improve local services.
  • Dementia Friends program An initiative aimed at raising awareness and understanding of dementia, encouraging communities to take small but meaningful actions to support those affected.
