Every Monday afternoon, Alive’s South Bristol dementia-friendly allotment will be running sessions for people living with dementia and their carers at Talbot Road Allotments.
While at the allotment, participants can join facilitated gardening sessions, relax in the fresh air surrounded by bird song and enjoy a well-deserved cup of tea before heading home.
The site is fully accessible, with wheelchair-friendly paths, raised beds, and a compost toilet. We also have a social shed for drizzly days, shade for when the sun’s shining, adapted tools, and lots of comfy seating.
Our facilitators are first aid trained, but are not trained carers. For this reason, we ask that a partner, relative or carer attends with the primary attendee.
To book a first visit or if you have any questions, please contact Abi at 07379498764 or email abi@aliveactivities.org.
Please note that we are not currently running care home visits at our South Bristol allotment.
