Money raised for Dementia UK

 Rogers & Norton are pleased to have finally been able to attend a cheque presentation to Dementia UK between lockdowns and whilst adhering to restrictions.

Aidan Tidnam and Dementia UK

In 2019 our chosen charity was Dementia UK and in particular, Admiral Nurses in Norfolk. We carried out bake sales, dress down days and had our annual foot-golf charity day to help raise crucial funds for such a worthy cause. Rogers and Norton raised over £7,000 and, together with money raised by the Admiral Walk team, a cheque for £17,000 was presented to Dementia UK. This was overseen by the dementia ambassador pony Jack Brock!

Admiral Nurses provide specialist support to families affected by dementia. They work alongside people with dementia and their families: giving them one-to-one support, expert guidance and practical solutions. The expertise and experience an Admiral Nurse brings is a lifeline – it helps families to live more positively with dementia in the present and to face the challenges of tomorrow with more confidence and less fear.

We are incredibly proud to continue our support for Dementia UK and help fund Admiral Nurses in the local community. Rogers and Norton is a Dementia Friendly company and a member of Dementia Action Alliance.
