Hertswise Dementia service
Live well with memory loss or dementia and make positive changes to your health and wellbeing
About the service
Hertswise is a service designed for people living with dementia, low level memory loss, or mild cognitive impairment, and their carers.
It’s provided by a partnership of community and voluntary groups to ensure we can offer the kind of support that you need. Hertswise aims to ensure that people of all ages, living anywhere in Hertfordshire, are able to easily access information and advice, activities and support. We have the right service to enable you to make positive changes to your health and wellbeing to both prevent the onset of dementia and to live well with memory loss and dementia whether or not you have (or want) a diagnosis.
