📅 Friday 19th June
⏰ 2.15–3.15pm

Our first session focuses on Household Brands — from classic packaging to everyday favourites that spark joyful memories and meaningful conversation.

Expect a relaxed hour of sharing, chatting and reconnecting with familiar items from the past, with tea and biscuits provided.

Memory Keepers will run monthly, with a different theme each time.

The session is free to attend, and everyone is welcome — you’re also invited to bring an item of your own to share with the group.

This year Carers Week is all about building carer friendly communities. We’ll be highlighting the impact carer friendly communities can have in making a real and lasting difference to the lives of carers everywhere.

Carer friendly communities are places, spaces, services and community groups where unpaid carers are recognised, understood, and valued. They make support part of everyday life ensuring carers get the opportunities and help they need.

Together we’re building carer friendly communities that support carers in every area of their lives.

By adding your name you’ll be part of a movement to better support carers across the UK.
