We’re all struggling in our own unique ways during this lockdown. The struggle is especially real if you’re a full-time carer locked in with your loved one. You may well be experiencing a range of emotions due to the feeling you’re unable to escape for an hour or two just to be you. The feelings…
On Saturday 5th October, I received an exciting phone call. It was from the BBC inviting me onto their BBC Breakfast show for one of their features talking about dementia. Of course, I jumped at the chance, and the very next day, I was picked up in a taxi and taken to their Salford-based studios,…
It’s wonderful that so much interest is being shown in the Me2U Centre from media outlets. This allows us to amplify our reach and let people know about the work we are currently doing and what projects we’ve got going on in the future. We were blessed when Liverpool TV approached us to do some…
It’s been a fast-paced eighteen months since we first opened our doors to the residents of Kirkby and beyond, and each day we are confirmed in our decision to create the Me2U Centre. When Me2U was in its infancy, we were lucky enough to be featured on Radio Merseyside and talk to Tony Snell about…
Our community hub and dementia care service only opened its doors a little over a year and a half ago and has gone from strength to strength, training up new care staff, building a sensory garden and installing the first dementia-friendly Men’s Shed. Me2U Centre endeavours to provide a safe, stimulating and supportive environment for…

It was a great night out with live music, raffles, dancing and entertainment plus a fantastic speech from the Lord Mayer of Liverpool, Cllr…
Back in August, I wrote a post describing a project we hoped to implement here at Me2U Centre. Since then, I’m pleased to say it has become a reality! That project was the Men’s Shed, an essential space for men to work on a mix of projects and try their hand and some practical skills…
It’s always exciting at Me2U Centre for a variety of reasons. We’re constantly exploring new options to improve our person-centred service, add more fun activities and we’re also seeking out opportunities to enhance our understanding of old people’s mental health. Having said that, this week has been far more exciting than most, as it was…
We all remember grandad in his greenhouse or pottering away in his shed. It would be time for him to break away from the rest of the world for a touch of “me-time”. While you may think it’s unfair that mum was relegated to the kitchen, the obvious thing was that dad, like most men,…
