SIR,

We at the Alzheimer's Society would like to offer our sincere thanks to the people of Monmouth and Chepstow who gave so generously on 24th May during our street collection, and also to those people who volunteered as collectors.

We raised £653.59 which will be used to help people with dementia and those who care for them.

In Monmouthshire, we are able to offer an information and support service, befriending, memory cakes, singing for the brain, activity groups, memory cafes and support groups.

Our thanks go to those kind individuals who donate through street collections, fundraising, individual donations and donations given in memory of loved ones.

For further information on our services or to volunteer please contact our office at Bridges Community Centre on 01600 719127.
