About us
Who we are
MindforYou is a specialist organisation for both people living with dementia and their families who no longer consider it’s possible to enjoy standard leisure activities and holidays.
In 2015 MindforYou established unique, small group UK holidays in dementia friendly holiday properties. Our experienced and compassionate staff personalise the holiday and provide support for people living with dementia and their family carer from 9am to 9pm “Like a family holiday, but stress free” (Quote from MindforYou Guest).
MindforYou is the only organisation in the UK focusing on year round holidays for people living with dementia and their family carer.
MindforYou customer satisfaction is 4.8 out of 5. “The too good to be true holiday turned out to be true” (Quote from MindforYou Guest).
Well being benefits for both the person with dementia and their family carer include being able to relax together, spend quality time together, make new friends, make new memories and be free from caring responsibilities. “MindforYou is Good for You”
