Dementia Support Sessions
Join us for conversation and cuddles with guinea pig friends.
These relaxed and free sessions are being held on the first Tuesday of each month.
These are especially for unpaid carers, family and friends of People Living With Dementia, and those being cared for.
The sessions are 90 minutes, and include refreshments and time with guinea pigs.
Cavies & Cake sessions are normally £6.95.
To book give us a call on 07521 990641 or email us at squeak@caviesandcake.co.uk
About Us
Cavies & Cake was established to bring the therapies of Cuddly Cavies to the wider community.
As parents of children with additional needs and being autistic ourselves, we know how isolating and hard daily life can be. It was important to us to provide a place for carers and the cared for as well as the general community so people could meet and make new friends. No one need feel excluded or lonely and we have many contact groups that we can point you in if you need a hand with something specific.
Since we started in 2022 we have expanded our services and are regularly being used by many organisations. We have been to Norwich University of the Arts as part of Wellness Week and Litcham school, as well as Scope, Age Concern, Young Carers and many others.
We are extremely proud to have funded sessions through the MONUMENT project and doing regular sessions for the fantastic Dementia Adventure in Norfolk.
We go into secondary mainstream school to provide weekly therapeutic sessions, as well as having pupils come to us when school life is a little too much.
We welcome all enquires and try and accommodate every individual or group as required, whether its for a therapy based session or a fun activity.
