A sheltered housing group is inviting members of the public to enjoy a cup of tea to raise funds for Dementia UK.

Robert Kett Court in Wymondham is throwing a tea party to raise much-needed funds for specialist dementia nurses for the charity.

One of the event organisers, Karen Claydon, said: 'There's few things better than tea and cake with family and friends, old and new.

'We're holding a Time for a Cuppa tea party so we can raise awareness and funds for Dementia UK - the only UK charity offering specialist one-to-one support and advice to people living with dementia and their families.

'This is particularly relevant to us at Robert Kett Court, as we have a few tenants living positively here with dementia.'

The event will take place on Tuesday, March 7.
