Receiving a diagnosis of dementia

We are funded by North Central London Integrated Care Board (NCL ICB) to support people who are newly diagnosed with dementia, and we work closely with Enfield Memory Service and North Middlesex University Hospital Trust.

We accept referrals from all sources, including self referrals. Enfield Memory Service will refer you directly to our Health & Wellbeing Navigators at Age UK Enfield when you are diagnosed.

Our aim is to ensure people have timely information, advice and support following a diagnosis of dementia.

What we do.

Health & Wellbeing Navigators can work with you, one to one and can help by:
Helping you understand and manage your diagnosis
Help you to build coping strategies
Help to obtain welfare benefits and travel concessions
Help with planning for later life (information re lasting power of attorney, wills and advanced statements)
Help to access assistance from other organisations
Understanding assisted technology options
Referring to other relevant services and sources of support e.g. occupational therapy, fire safety visits and much more.
Connect you to others via different support/social groups.
