The cafe started in 2011 when they joined the Devon Group of Memory Cafes and continue to have informal links with the Devon Memory Café Consortium. The Memory Cafe provides help and support to those who have memory problems, as well as their carers, in the area. The café is run by volunteers, many of whom have attended courses on memory difficulties and dementia.
