Changes to Dementia Support Services in Herefordshire and Worcestershire

Age UK Wyvern is announcing an important change to dementia support services across Herefordshire and Worcestershire.

From 31 October 2026, Age UK Wyvern will no longer be commissioned by the Herefordshire and Worcestershire Integrated Care Board (ICB) to deliver the Dementia Wellbeing Service.

From 1 November 2026, a new Post Diagnostic Dementia Support Service will be delivered by Alzheimer’s Society, following a procurement process undertaken by the ICB earlier this year.
