Our Memory Lane Dementia Day Service is provided in partnership with Age UK Lincoln and South Lincolnshire.
The service provides a safe and enjoyable experience for individuals while offering carers the opportunity to rest or otherwise enjoy their time.
We want our loved ones to remain independent for as long as possible but a diagnosis of dementia can make caring harder than it used to be.
What we offer
- A secure and peaceful environment
- Employees trained in dementia care
- Time, patience and understanding
- The opportunity to socialise with others within a small group – up to a maximum of 15 clients
- Activities designed to engage and stimulate
- A nutritious two course lunch (additional cost applies)
- Refreshments throughout the day
- Signposting to other services for carers
- One free trial session to help us and you assess if this is the right environment.
Our activities
Activities don’t just pass time. They help the person living with dementia to retain or sometimes regain important skills and provide enjoyment and social contact. Recent research has shown that relatively short periods of shared activity and social interaction achieved a 25% improvement in behavioural symptoms.
Encouraging someone with dementia to do something creative, some gentle exercise or take part in an activity helps them to realise their potential, improving their self-esteem and reducing loneliness.
Our activities are personalised to the person’s current interests, previous occupation and interests and current cognitive function and abilities.
Is it suitable for you?
The service is suitable for people living with dementia who are able, with support, to enjoy spending time with others in a group setting.
The small group size will provide ample opportunity to deliver activities tailored to individual needs and interests.
If you or the person you care for might benefit from the service, please contact us and we will arrange to meet you to make sure this is the right option for you.
A free trial session is available for you to attend so that the both of you can assess whether this is the right service for you.

Respite Room at Mayfields
LHP are very pleased to announce the opening of the new respite room at our Extra Care Scheme in Mayfields, Boston.
The respite room is a private space for those who are caring for others, or individuals themselves that are receiving care.
Having been specially designed as a relaxing space, the room gives those who need it the chance to take a much-deserved break.
Respite rooms are also ideal for people who may have recently left hospital but aren’t quite ready to return home, providing a compact and accessible space to recuperate in.
Inside, the room has everything you might need to help with rest or recovery time, such as:
- A single bed, which is convertible into a double bed
- Accessible bathroom
- Clean bedding and linens
- TV
- Dining area
- Seating area
- Kitchen area
We’re opening this room to support the local community and to help relieve some of the NHS bed blocking issues seen in in many hospitals.
If you or anyone that you know, thinks that they would benefit from using the room, please contact our customer service team on 01205 318 588 or email telecare@lincolnshirehp.com
We’re so excited to meet to welcome you into the space – comfort awaits!
