Volunteers at St Andrew’s Church in Carluke, South Lanarkshire, have been central to the development of a Dementia Friendly Health Walk, supporting people in their community who are living with dementia.

Friends Alice Torrance and Jessie Armstrong helped form the group after both attended the church’s drop-in support for people living with dementia with their husbands, who died within a few months of each other in 2018. After training as volunteer walk leaders, they now lead the weekly walk from the church.
