Lemonade Days | The Dementia Social Club

Our Approach

Support Us

The social club for those living with dementia and their community.

Where joy meets dementia. Head on.

These are people in our neighbourhoods, our boroughs, our lives. Yet after diagnosis, support for their emotional and social needs is too often the missing link.Lemonade Days is not a clinic or a replacement for clinical care. It is designed to fill the emotional, social, and community-shaped gap left post-diagnosis.

The First Dementia Social Club 

Create, share, support & build up a vision in a female community.

A weekly, in-person community for people living with dementia and those who care for them. We create space for connection, joy, and relief. Because living with dementia shouldn't just be clinical, it should feel good.

Every Tuesday at [location], [time]. Each session includes movement, creative activities, conversation, and community. It's structured enough to feel safe, and relaxed enough to feel good.We keep costs accessible and our doors open to everyone.

Join our friendly weekly gatherings designed to engage and support individuals living with dementia through fun activities and meaningful interaction.

Weekly Social Club Meetings

Participate in tailored activities aimed at enhancing memory and cognitive function in a supportive environment.

Weekly Meetups

Personal-trainer-led sessions designed to keep bodies moving and spirits high. Because joy lives in motion, too.

Connection beyond clinical care

We were in one of the slums in Kathmandu. Kids, there are still deprived of access to the technology. We are there to break that barrier and give new opportunities.

Lemonade Days is funded by donations and grants. If you'd like to support what we're building, we'd love to hear from you.

Join us at the next Lemonade Day

Lemonade Days began with a shared experience: a diagnosis, a prescription, and a quiet, terrifying silence about what comes next. We are a group of people—children, spouses, friends—who looked at our loved ones and asked: Is this it?We didn't accept silence. We decided to build something together instead.

What Now ?

The healthcare system handles diagnoses, prescriptions, and check-ins. We handle what happens in between appointments.Lemonade Days offers structured, in-person sessions that focus on:<ul><li>Connection and companionship because loneliness makes everything harder.</li><li>Gentle movement because your body still deserves care.</li><li>Creative engagement because expression matters, even when words get harder.</li><li>Peer support because no one gets it like someone who's living it.</li><li>Relief for carers because you need space to breathe, too.</li></ul>We’re already seeing signs of impact: more responsiveness, better mood, greater participation and a shift in how people talk about dementia.

What makes us different?

Lemonade Days is as much for you as it is for them.It’s a place to:<ul><li>Feel less alone</li><li>Ask the hard questions</li><li>Get respite and guidance</li><li>Reconnect with your loved one outside the logistics of care</li><li>Join a network of people who simply get it</li></ul>We know this road. And we’ve made space for you here, too.

A practical, communal model for life after diagnosisDementia is one of the most pressing and under-resourced health challenges of our time.Nearly 1 million people in the UK are living with dementia today—about 1 in 11 over the age of 65—and that number is set to grow to 1.4 million by 2040. Meanwhile, around 700,000 unpaid carers are supporting loved ones with dementia, with many feeling overwhelmed and isolated.

I work in a software company designed and structured an app for field staff. That day we made a tour of our flow and could not miss a shot of our work :)

What your support enables

Saturday. Summer. Beautiful sunny day, so my friends and I decided to make a picnic and watch the sundown. Pretty fun and relaxed day.

I took this photograph of a group of ladies at a photo walk in NYC. It perfectly exemplified the unity that took place among photographers, models and creatives alike.
