As part of our commitment to making Hereford more dementia friendly, we offer monthly Dementia Friends Information Sessions here at The Courtyard. These sessions are for everyone whether you are directly impacted by dementia or not, anyone can be a Dementia Friend.

But she is under a spell that holds her captive, allowing her to regain her human form only at night.
