Welcome Visitor

Welcome Visitor A small local business offering befriending and companionship to older adults, including those with Classes are in the community and in care homes.

Welcome Visitor is a small company started by Katie Wilford to offer companionship to older adults (many of whom are living with dementia), who may be in need of some company and stimulation or support. "I have spent much of my life in contact with older people in various capacities. Through this I have learnt that all people need companionship and human contact, no matter what age they are or wha

t conditions they are living with. Many people, as they enter later life, are in contact with less and less people and are at risk of becoming isolated and lonely, especially if they have the added complications of living with dementia. What they really want is an opportunity to talk to someone who has the time to listen." I feel I can offer the time to talk and listen with patience and interest to those who are in need of company, support or respite. In addition to this I am now delivering the Love To Move seated exercise programme developed by the British Gymnastics Foundation. A fun and stimulating class suitable for older adults and those living with dementia, Parkinson's, MS or other neurological conditions.

Love to Move Dorset is holding a one-off fundraising event on Saturday 1st March to raise funds for one of our founding participants. And it involves CAKE!!🍰

This session is OPEN to ANYONE who is interested in what happens in a Love to Move session.

Maybe you have organised a family member to come to our groups but have never been yourself.

Perhaps you have followed our Facebook posts and are interested to know what it involves.

Or are you feeling like you would love to support our fabulous member, who without the funding will not be able to receive the benefits from an electrical device used to stimulate the leg muscles to aid walking. If he lived in Hampshire, this would be funded by the NHS!

Tickets available via Katie 07446 401838.
