Calling All Memory Cafe’s -
Spread The Cheer Of The Holidays With Us!
Last year J. Arthur’s Memory Cafe did a couple of renditions to the 12 days of Christmas. One was thanking the UK for sharing their wonderful Memory Cafe concept with us. The other was a Caregiver Credo. This year we have decided to do it again as we got such a great response. Below you will see last years videos we sent to the UK and and pushed out on social media to all those who give care.
The US Now Has Over 50 Social Support Gatherings For People with Dementia & Their Families!
We know there are others out there too and with your help we would like to find them to put into our directories. Alzheimer’s Speaks (make sure to refresh this link as listings are always changing. I still have several more to enter in to the system.) and Carole Larkin with Third Age Services are both trying to track them.
If you have a Memory Cafe that is not listed in the system, you can enter it my CLICKING HERE
Together we can make is easy for people to find Memory Cafes.
This year, we want you to join us!
Anyone who does a video and lets us know we will post here and on Alzheimer’s Speaks and push it out to our audience to help expand awareness of Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of Dementias. Please join this great cause. As you will see it was all in fun and we were not going for perfect by any stretch of the imagination. We all had a blast.
On December 12th, J. Arthur’s Memory Cafe will do another rendition using the same lyrics we used the prior year. Anyone and everyone is welcome to use the lyrics we made up or come up with your own. The goal is awareness and to have fun doing it!
Here are our videos. Below are the lyrics…ENJOY!
