Today marks the start of World Alzheimer's Month.

In light of this, we wanted to share Emma's story, Best Life's Founder and Managing Director.

"When I lost my grandfather, my grandmother’s independence quickly declined. Without easy access to transport, home support, or a solution that suited her needs, she moved into a care home. Sadly, this is a common reality for many families. I lost my mum to cancer when I was just nine years old, so my nan, Pat, was very important to me.

When my Grandmother began showing signs of dementia, we looked for support, but not a lot existed. Eventually, she was moved into a care home, not because she needed to be there, but because there was nowhere else for her to go. That’s why I created Best Life, to create the kind of support I wish Pat had, and that every person deserves.”

As a business with a strong social purpose, we hope to support as many people as we can to live their best lives.

This month, check in on your friends, your neighbours, your colleagues. Alzheimer's can sometimes be hidden, but it doesn't need to be❤️‍🩹

At Best Life, we are committed to supporting the next generation through work experience and student placements. 🌱

We have recently said goodbye to Oscar, who spent 3 months working with the team planning and delivering marketing content. This included the creation of the Best Life Podcast, a project which we supported him to create over the course of his placement. 🎙

Oscar has written a blog about his experience as an intern which you can read here: www.bestlife.org.uk/blog/internship-with-best-life ✨

Thank you for all your contributions Oscar! And if you haven't already, make sure you check out the Best Life Podcast: www.bestlife.org.uk/podcast ✨

We are looking forward to supporting more young people to gain work experience at a time when placements are increasingly hard to come by and are soon to welcome our next intern.🌟

✨Sharing.✨Connection.✨Friendship.✨

Best Life Day Clubs provide a space where people living with dementia can connect with one another beyond a diagnosis. Collaborative activities prompt natural friendships and social connections grow as we meet up each week.

Sometimes, people can have pre-conceived ideas of what a 'dementia day club' might look like. That's why we offer free taster sessions at all of our day clubs, so that you can come and see for yourself how vibrant and joyful they are.🌟

We currently run day clubs in Winterbourne, Redland and Bedminster. If you'd like to book a free taster session for you or a loved one, or just want to learn a bit more, you can visit our website here: www.bestlife.org.uk/day-club
