Subject Definitions

Services providing advice and information relating to all aspects of mental health.
Befriending services offer supportive, reliable relationships through volunteer befrienders to people with mental health problems who would otherwise be socially isolated.
For some people later in their life the cells in the brain that are related to mental ability become damaged, causing a gradual decrease in the ability to think and remember. When this happens it is referred to as dementia. Dementia is a non-specific illness syndrome (set of signs and symptoms) in which affected areas of cognition may be memory, attention, language, and problem solving.
Home Care services offer practical help and support to people at home with essential daily tasks they are unable to manage safely for themselves.
Groups or organisations set up to support the specific needs of mental health service users, and their carers.
