East Kilbride & District Dementia Carers Group is a not for profit registered charity, run by a volunteer management committee that has been providing high-quality personalised care for people with dementia since 1990, as well as offering support to the carers of those with dementia. We also provide information, advice and training to the general public and other organisations to help give a better understanding of dementia.

Our daycare is based in a small homely building, which makes it appear more like ‘visiting a friend’ than attending a centre. We have a high ratio of staff and volunteers to service users, meaning that we can spend plenty of time with each individual who attends, getting to know them, their likes and dislikes, and building up care plans that are unique to each individual. More importantly, building relationships with them, earning their trust and supporting them.
