Grants of up to £7,500 are available to support small dementia clubs and memory cafes, through the McCarthy Stone Foundation’s Dementia Grants Programme.

At least 20 grants will be awarded to organisations that provide services to adults over 65 years old, and their carers.

The grants are open to registered charities, community groups, and community interest companies (CICs) with an annual income of under £250,000. Priority will be given to those working in areas of high deprivation.

The deadline for applications is Friday 14 March 2025, with successful applicants expected to be informed in early May 2025.
