Senior Center: Memory Café - Thursday, Oct 15th

Do you want to learn more about a "Memory Café"? A memory café is a safe and supportive social environment for families who have a loved one with Dementia. 

It is a place to relax and socialize and typically have some form of entertainment. A place where families can be with others in similar circumstances. Come spend some time with us! We always have a good time!

This month's memory café features a pet therapy visit. We will have a small, therapy trained dog to visit with us.

This month's memory café is October 15th (always the third Thursday of the month) at the Franklin Senior Center from 3:00-4:30. 

If you would like to learn more about the café or just want to call to let us know you would like to attend, please call Elaine Owens at the Franklin Senior center at 508-520-4945. We hope to see you there!

Memory Café - Thursday - Aug 20 - 3:00 PM

Please join us this Thursday at the Franklin Senior Center for our monthly Memory Café. Memory cafes are places for people with memory loss to share in social time with their caregivers and others.

This month we plan to do a very simple flower arrangement with flowers donated by Hillside Nurseries. We will have a refreshment and just chat and relax!

Memory cafes are popping up around the state and nationally as well. Locally the cafes are coordinated by Beth Soltzberg at Jewish Friends and Family Services in Waltham, Mass. There are several cafes in our area and all are open to the public and are free of charge.
