Dementia friendly cafés or groups can improve the wellbeing of people with dementia in many ways by:
• Providing interest and enjoyment
• Maintaining independence
• Raising self-esteem
• Lessening anxiety and depression
• Helping to retain skills for longer

Most importantly the group is a place where people can enjoy sharing experiences and find companionship in a relaxed environment away from the stresses of everyday life.
