Betty Hunter Dementia Support Group Launches at Coventry Irish Society
October 9, 2023
Coventry Irish Society is delighted to announce that we have named our new 'Dementia Support Group' after the late Elizabeth 'Betty' Hunter. Betty, from Dun Laoghaire, was a phenomenal force for good and contributed so much in the field of Dementia. This included being a founding member of the Coventry branch of the Alzheimers Society and setting up of her specialist dementia care company, 'Care Associates'. You can read about Betty's life using the link below.

Our Dementia Group is now at Eaton House offices.

Betty Hunter Dementia Support Group
Starting Thursday 12 October 12pm-3pm
The group is aimed at people living with memory loss and their carers who would like to embrace their Irish culture. A light lunch, music and games are provided.
