A much-needed transformation is coming to a Stockport day care centre that provides vital support for people living with dementia, thanks to a generous £10,000 donation from local technology reseller MusicMagpie.
The substantial contribution will benefit the Forget Me Not charity, which operates the day care facility offering crucial respite services and social activities for dementia patients and their carers across the Stockport community.
Breathing New Life into Vital Community Services
The funding injection will enable comprehensive renovations at the centre, creating a more comfortable, stimulating and safe environment for service users. The improvements are expected to significantly enhance the quality of care and daily experience for both patients and their families.
Steve Oliver, Co-founder of MusicMagpie, expressed the company's commitment to local causes: "We're proud to support Forget Me Not and the incredible work they do for people living with dementia in our community. This donation reflects our ongoing dedication to making a positive difference in Stockport."
A Lifeline for Families and Carers
Day care centres like Forget Me Not provide essential respite for family members and carers, offering professional supervision and engaging activities that help maintain cognitive function and social connection for dementia patients.
The charity's services have become increasingly important as dementia cases continue to rise nationally, with many families relying on such facilities to help manage the challenges of caring for loved ones with cognitive conditions.
The renovation project represents a significant boost to mental health and elderly care services in the Stockport area, ensuring that vulnerable residents continue to receive high-quality support in modern, well-maintained facilities.
