Matinée Outreach is for people living with dementia in Derbyshire, and their carers. In this trying time it offers an alternative to online activities for those who are further isolated by lockdown and everything that Covid brings with it. Matinée Outreach takes place via telephone and post with professional artists who can have regular chat with people and encourage some creativity, fun and conversation.
