Hi all

I help to care for my Great Aunt, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease around 6 months ago. Until a few months before her diagnosis, she had visited the same local Hairdresser for years, but stopped going when she started to get confused and miss appointments.

We are hoping that others in similar situations may have suggestions or recommendations for a Mobile Hairdresser who may be able to visit her at home. My Great Aunt remains a positive, friendly person and sometimes shows awareness of her memory decline. She has never been violent in any way.

We are looking for:
A Dementia/Alzheimer's-friendly person, who has a good understanding of the condition
Someone who can cope with the challenges Alzheimer's can bring
Someone with a caring and understanding attitude
A Mobile Hairdresser who works in Berkshire and is willing to travel to the Client's own home in Bray
Someone who is familiar with cutting and styling the hair of ladies in their 80's

Any recommendations will be very gratefully received - many thanks in advance for your help!
