Between the Lines – Book-Sparked Chat Over a Cup of Tea

Next date: Monday, 20 April 2026 | 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM

Picture of a book discussion with four elderly people sitting around a table.

Shared reading groups for people with memory loss or dementia allow them to continue reading and enjoying books.

This activity promotes wellbeing and enhances their language skills.

Reading together and speaking about books helps people connect with their memories and each other, fostering community and reducing isolation.

Meets fortnightly, every second Monday 10:00am to 11:00am (excluding public holidays).

In association with Dementia Tai Tokerau.

Free – registration required
