💜 Helping to keep loved ones safe with the Herbert Protocol

Caring for someone with dementia or Alzheimer’s can be full of love but it also brings real challenges.

One of the hardest moments is when someone starts to wander or ‘walk about’. It might be just down the street or into the garden but sometimes, they can get lost.

That’s where the Herbert Protocol can make a real difference.

It’s a simple form that carers, family or friends can fill in with key details like:
📋 Medication and contact numbers
🏡 Favourite or familiar places
🖼️ A recent photograph

If a person goes missing, the police can use this information straight away — saving precious time and reducing distress for everyone involved.

Named after George Herbert, a Normandy veteran who lived with dementia, the protocol offers peace of mind through preparation and care.

🕊️ By keeping the form completed and up to date, you’re taking an important step to help keep your loved one safe.

It’s lovely to hear such glowing compliments about the work we do here. At the Ness, we understand how important your memory health truly is.

Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (CST) is an NHS-recognised, evidence-based intervention proven to support people living with dementia.

On 15th October, Ness Care Group will be launching an 8-week CST programme in Totnes. Sessions are small, structured and led by trained professionals.

We’re keen to connect with GPs, memory clinics and community organisations who may wish to discuss referrals or partnership working.

40% of people living with dementia in the South West never receive a diagnosis.

That means no access to proven therapies, no early support and families often only seeking help when it’s more complex and costly.

Early diagnosis isn’t about labels. It’s about buying time. For therapies to work, for independence to be maintained and for families to plan together.

The sooner dementia is recognised, the greater the impact of both medical and non-medical support like CST.

🧠 Would you agree that stigma is still the biggest barrier?
