Supporting the Tibbs Dementia Foundation: A Fundraising Event for a Cause Close to Home

We are excited to announce a series of special fundraising events for the Tibbs Dementia Foundation, hosted by Radfield Home Care Bedford & Ampthill. As a quality-focused home care company, we have been dedicated to providing exceptional care for over 40 years. Our mission resonates with the work that Tibbs Dementia Foundation does, supporting individuals with dementia and their families in Bedfordshire.

The foundation, inspired by the pioneering efforts of Margaret-Anne Tibbs and her over 35 years of dedication to dementia care and research, has become a pillar in our community. We firmly believe in their mission to challenge stereotypes and create an environment where every individual is seen, heard, and valued beyond their diagnosis.

About Tibbs Dementia Foundation

The Tibbs Dementia Foundation is steadfast in its commitment to creating a supportive and inclusive environment for individuals with dementia along with their families. By confronting stereotypes and promoting a deeper understanding of dementia, they ensure that every individual’s unique value and contributions are recognised, beyond the confines of their diagnosis.

What Tibbs Do

The foundation offers a comprehensive range of services that cater to both those living with dementia and their carers. Their approach is holistic, covering the entire journey from pre-diagnosis to end-stage dementia, aimed at enhancing cognitive, physical, and emotional well-being through:

  • Music Therapy: Harnessing the therapeutic power of music to stimulate memory and forge emotional connections.
  • Cognitive Stimulation: Engaging activities designed to maintain and improve cognitive functions.
  • Physical Activities: Programs to encourage physical activity and promote overall health.
  • Information and Peer Support: Providing invaluable resources and a supportive community for carers and individuals with dementia.

Their approach aligns seamlessly with Radfield Home Care’s dedication to championing care that individuals not only need but also want. Together, we strive to help our nation age well by keeping people connected to the things that matter most to them.

Their Impact

Tibbs Dementia Foundation is dedicated to reducing isolation and improving the quality of life for those living with dementia. Through partnerships and innovative projects such as Music 4 Memory and Hear and Now, they leverage the power of music and creativity to connect and enrich lives. Their efforts are focused on building a truly dementia-friendly community where everyone’s contributions are acknowledged and celebrated.

Volunteer Efforts

These events are excellent opportunities for our community to come together, support a worthy cause, and have an enjoyable time.
