Dementia Project Assistant

AVSED+ is our new dementia activity day service, offering community-based support in a welcoming & friendly group setting. The aim is to provide an extended provision for those living with mild to moderate dementia & memory loss who need additional support from our regular AVSED offer.
Initially open Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10am—3pm, our day group will follow the same structure and ethos of AVSED, with physical exercise routines, social and friendship sessions, and cognitive stimulation therapy classes, all promoting happy, healthy, and independent living in the community.

You will:

1. Assist in the delivery of the day group
2. Provide holistic, person-centred activities and support
3. Work with a small team to ensure an efficient and effective group
4. Maintain high standards of care
5. Provide personal care
6. Provide a caring and supportive environment for members
7. Work collaboratively with the Project Development Worker and other AVSED staff
8. Support our organisation to be dementia-aware and dementia friendly
