Some dementia cafes run virtual dementia cafe meetings. Virtual cafes generally last an hour and have the same format as the regular cafe. They are easy to join.
The Irish Dementia Cafe Network is currently hosting a fortnightly Virtual Dementia Café every Friday at 11am. Click here to join.
See below a list of dementia cafes that currently have virtual meetings. To attend, just email or phone the co-ordinator and they will send you the details.
