Dementia advice clinic at Harrogate Nationwide branch

Nationwide and Dementia UK’s free face-to-face clinics are returning to Nationwide Harrogate branch this week.

Hosted by Dementia UK’s Admiral Nurses, the clinics, on November 3 and 4, are open to anyone impacted by dementia, offering life-changing support to families and individuals in the area.

Lesley Potter, Admiral Nurse at Dementia UK, said: “We’re looking forward to returning to Yorkshire to offer support and advice to families affected by dementia.

“Since launching our partnership with Nationwide Building Society, we have seen the difference it can make to bring specialist dementia support into local communities.

“These clinics give people the chance to speak to an Admiral Nurse about any aspect of dementia, from understanding a diagnosis to finding practical support in a safe and accessible place, helping to ensure no one faces dementia alone.”

The clinics will offer practical and emotional advice on all aspects of dementia – from worries about symptoms through to getting a diagnosis and understanding how the condition can progress.

Nationwide is funding 30 dementia specialist Admiral Nurses and is hosting clinics in over 230 Nationwide branches across the country.

Charlotte Kensett, Director of Customer Experience and Social Impact for Nationwide, said: “Dementia impacts millions of families and that’s why we’re incredibly proud to have brought life-changing support into 250 of our branches and helped more than 55,000 people through our partnership with Dementia UK.”
