Sporting Memories Sessions

Volunteers from Aberdeen Football Club Community Trust and Alzheimer Scotland host Sporting Memories meetings in Aberdeenshire Cricket Club, Mannofield, on a monthly basis. 

This project allows people living with memory loss, including dementia and, more broadly, people experiencing loneliness and social isolation, to spend time in a welcoming environment whilst reminiscing about their many sporting memories.

We use a range of reminiscence resources including books, magazines and newspapers as well as items of personal memorabilia.

Sessions run from 2pm to 3.30pm on the first Wednesday of each month and include a cup of tea or coffee and a ‘fine’ biscuit at half-time.

Sessions are informal and include a fair helping of fun and laughter!

If you, or someone you know, would benefit from attending our sessions, in the first instance, please contact Jenna McDonald, Aberdeen Football Club Community Trust at jenna.mcdonald@afccommunitytrust.org or Keith Davidson on mobile number 07805 706968  or email at keithyd47@gmail.com
