The idea
Bob's Brainwaves is expanding to Boston to help families in the early stages of dementia. We're offering our Help Pack, a simple resource filled with essential forms, guidance, and support to make life easier for carers. These packs will be available at NHS memory clinics and dementia cafes, ensuring families have quick access to the help they need.
Inspired by founder Chris Suich's 9-year journey caring for her husband Bob, the Help Pack has already made a big impact in East Lindsey by reducing stress and providing clarity for carers. Now, we're bringing this proven resource to Boston to empower more families and support them through challenging times.
Together, we can make a real difference—one family at a time
ALL funds will go directly to the production of the Handy Help Packs.
What we'll deliver
- Produce 400 Bob's Brainwaves Handy Help Packs
- Provide information & support to 400 families living with dementia
