Polegate Memory Café

Every first Thursday of the month at Polegate Community Centre. Tea, coffee, home made cakes and different activities every month. No booking necessary.

Forums

Our vision from the start was to set up local forums as Wealden is identified as a large and rural area. So far we have helped to create the Uckfield Forum and Polegate Forum. These forums work alongside their local community to become a dementia friendly community.
