Dementia Friendly Gurudwaras Toolkit
Dementia Friendly Gurudwaras Toolkit
This toolkit is designed to support you in making your local Gurudwara Dementia Friendly. It is not meant to be prescriptive but will hopefully provide some food for thought, and have some practical applications for you in your work.
How can we help?
The Dementia Friendly Gurudwaras Project offers several services to help you make your Gurudwara Dementia Friendly. These include;
1.) A review of your Gurudwara with a view towards making it Dementia Friendly
2.) Providing assistance in developing a workable action plan
3.) A mentor scheme to provide ongoing support and advice
4.) “Dementia Friends” workshop delivered in English and Punjabi at your Gurudwara for congregation members including children and sevadaars until such time as local sevadaars have completed their Dementia Champions training
5.) Full access to our virtual information portal.
Hi guys,
I’m also a Doctor, currently in foundation training in London. I found out about your work through The Daily Telegraph, and was really interested. I wanted to know what sort of changes you made at your local gurudwara, and what would you advise me to do if i wanted to do something at my local one?
Thank you and god bless
Hi Randeep, Thanks for your message and interest. We are preparing a pdf on how people can make their local Gurudwaras dementia friendly. I will send this to you as soon as it’s completed. Best wishes, Rajinder
Hi. I have sent you an email and would love to hear from you. We run a Wellbeing Ctr in Hounslow and are keen to hear about making a Gurdwara Dementia friendly.
Hi Gurpreet, please can you give me details of your Welbeing Centre in Hounslow? My mum has alzeihmers and I would like to know if it would benefit her. Also am keen to have a dementia friendly gurdwara for my mum.

We recently attended a similar event organised by Irish in Britain. It was a big success and well received by all groups attending.
Would be happy to help in any way.
