Recently The Tameside Reporter visited St George's Dementia Café to find out just how much difference the café makes to those living with dementia. The Café were entertained by Tameside Community Voices, and The Tameside Reporter kindly filmed the event and talked to some of the choir and Café organisers.You can watch the video by clicking here.
Congratulations to David Brayshaw who has completed 60 years as a chorister at St. George's! We all thank him for his dedicated service.
