Keeping safe, staying social with dementia
Harakeke Club provides day activity programmes for people diagnosed with cognitive impairment/dementia.
Harakeke Club
Social connection with dementia; respite for caregivers
Housed in our purpose-built dementia facilities, our programmes offer interesting, age- and ability-appropriate activities in a safe, inviting environment. Our aim is to help those with dementia to remain socially active and engaged while their carers take some time out. We put special emphasis on enhancing dignity and wellbeing.
Who benefits from Harakeke Club?
Older people with dementia who are becoming, or are at risk of becoming, socially isolated
Carers living in the community – Harakeke Club is designed to give carers some time out from the 24/7 nature of caring for a loved one with dementia.
