Lancing Community Dementia Hive
Located at 73-75 North Road, Lancing, BN15 9AS, the Lancing Community Dementia Hive is a welcoming hub dedicated to supporting individuals living with dementia and their families. We offer an open, safe, and nurturing environment designed to help people thrive.
With our person-centred approach, each individual’s needs are understood and supported, significantly enhancing their quality of life. We foster friendships and equip families and carers with valuable knowledge and practical skills.
We opened in June 2025 and welcome people to pop by and say ‘hello’ – we’d love to meet you.

During November at the Hive, we have the Adur & Worthing wellbeing clinic on Monday 3rd, 10th and 17 November, and they help with weight, alcohol and smoking – and take it at your pace (contact Kim to book).
Wednesday 5th November 10.30 am – 1.30 pm is our LGTBQ Coffee and Chat peer support Group with Switchboard. This is for people living with dementia and/or carers. On Thursday November 6 at the D-Cafe, we have the NHS Carers Health Team. You can book a slot with Bernie to help reduce strain in your caring role plus there is a meet and greet with Emma Winston from Dementia and Older People Mental Health Services.
