Slnce her diagnosls, Tony has been her main Sour￿ of support, nawgating the da1￿ challenges that caring for a someone with dementra can brfn9. In June Tony reglstered with Wandsworth Carers, Centre and the dementia lead reached out to offer hlm I:1 support. During early conversatlons, tslking about his caring role, we invited him to joln our Evenlng Dementia Carer5 Support Group, Dementla Cafés, and DernentSa Training Course. At firs¢ Tony was hesltant. He wasn't sure that a 5UPPOrt grDUP would be rfght for him or if tslklng to others would make a dlfference. To help ease the transits'on, his daughter registered too, and together they attended thelr flrst Peer SuppDrt Group In July. It was there that Tory Ilstsned to the w￿ler￿e$ of other Carer5, and for the first tkne, felt able to open up about hi5 own struggles. That first 5tsp proved to be a turnlng polnt. En¢ouraged by the posthve experlence, Tony continued to attend regularly. Over the past eight months, he has tecome a consistent presen￿ at our support groups, has brought Mellnda along to our Dementia Cafés, and completed our three-week Dementla Tralnlry COu￿e to deepen his under5tandlng of the condition and explore practical ways of supp￿n9 her.
