Nationwide is set to host free face-to-face clinics for families affected by dementia in Great Yarmouth.

Specialist dementia care will be provided by Admiral Nurses from Dementia UK at the Nationwide branch in the town.

The initiative aims to offer practical and emotional support to individuals and families dealing with dementia.

The clinics will provide advice on a range of issues, including memory problems, diagnosis, progression of the condition, as well as financial and legal matters.

These consultations can be booked through the Dementia UK website.

Nationwide branches are designed to be safe and private spaces for these discussions.

The aim is to support 100,000 people affected by dementia.

This effort is part of a wider initiative by Nationwide to tackle social issues, including dementia, youth homelessness and family poverty.

Sarah Priestley, an Admiral Nurse at Dementia UK, said: “We’re looking forward to bringing specialist face-to-face support for people affected by dementia to Great Yarmouth.

"By partnering with Nationwide, we are able to provide a safe space in towns across the county to ensure our Admiral Nurses are able to reach as many people affected by the condition as possible."

"By working with Dementia UK to fund more Admiral Nurses and turning our branches into dementia clinics, we’re helping to tackle the country’s leading cause of death.

"As a mutual, we work for the good of society as well as our members.

"We believe this and Nationwide Fairer Futures will change hundreds of thousands of lives for the better.”
