A Hucknall group that helps support vulnerable adults living with dementia has been awarded more than £2,000 by Central Co-op.

Heydays Activity Hub CIC meets three times a week at St John’s Church Community Hall on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 10am to 1.30pm.

It has been awarded £2,500 which it will put towards continuing to provide support for dementia sufferers, including room hire for mental and physical stimulation.

The award is from the Co-op’s Community Dividend Fund and is part of an overall handout of £43,230 to 31 charities and good causes across a number of counties.
