We try to deliver courses at times that suit most people – we run morning, afternoon and evening courses. If you don’t find a date and time that will work for you email empoweredteam@ageuksalford.org.uk and we will pop you on a waiting list.

Alongside these courses we also deliver regular FREE dementia focused webinars, booking details are below. If you miss any of these webinars you can catch them on YouTube.
