As we navigate Mental Health Awareness Week and Dementia Awareness Week, we’re excited to share stories, inspiration, and a touch of magic with you.
Finding Magic: The Poem That Sparked Smiles
At our welcoming Dementia Café, something enchanting happened. Renee recited the heartfelt poem “Finding Magic” by Eric Finney. The room hushed, and then erupted into smiles and animated chatter. Bernard, always up for a creative challenge, decided to set the poem to music. The result? Pure magic.

Let the words and melodies transport you.
Magic in Everyday Moments
The Northern Lights last weekend painted the sky with magic. Look around—magic is woven into the fabric of life. It’s in the laughter shared at our dementia cafes, the warmth of a cup of tea, and the resilience of those facing mental health challenges.
A Reminder
Living with mental health challenges and dementia can be tough, but moments like these remind us that magic exists even in the ordinary. Our cafes offer respite, connection, and a chance to share smiles through meaningful activities and great company.
