Memory Lane at Home from Age UK Surrey

Memory Lane at Home is a dementia and memory support service from Age UK Surrey. It gives people support at home and gives family carers a break.

Home Support Workers can help people:

• enjoy company at home
• go out to local places
• keep doing hobbies
• stay linked to their community
• take part in memory games, puzzles, reading or creative activities
• share life stories and look through photos
• have light snacks and drinks

Support can include trips to places such as:

• cafes
• shops
• garden centres
• libraries
• parks
• clubs or social groups

You need to register before visits can start. A service coordinator will visit your home first to learn about your needs, routines, interests and safety needs.

Most people book regular weekly visits. One-off visits may also be possible after registration, if staff are available.

Visits must be at least 2 hours.

This is a social support service. It does not offer personal care, such as help with medicine, bathing or toileting.

There is a one-off registration fee. Visits are charged by the hour. Other costs may apply for mileage, admission fees or trips out.

You can register by phone or email.
