Cafes come by a number of names, Memory Cafes, Alzheimer's Cafes, Dementia Cafes.
The concept is to provide a social occasion, a meetup, for anyone with dementia / Alzheimer's, their care givers and family.
They are informal and generally free. Activities vary. Support and funding depends on the host-provider and contributions.

The Cork Alzheimer Cafe
The Cork Alzheimer Cafe: The Cork Alzheimer Cafe, was established in 2012 by the Cork Alzheimer Cafe foundation (CAFe), in conjunction with St Finbarrs Hospital and the Departments of Gerontology and Rehabilitation and Old Age Psychiatry, University College Cork. Alzheimers Cafes were first founded in the Netherlands in late 1990s and have grown in number worldwide since. This is the second Alzheimer cafe in Ireland, the first outside of Dublin, and is modelled on international best practice.
