A LIFELINE project which is supporting Inverclyde people who are living with dementia has secured a cash boost of £2,000 from Inverclyde Council. 

Lyle Gateway's Memories Cafe has received the money through the council's community grants fund, subject to conditions. 

The cash injection will be used to support the monthly gathering which helps people living with dementia share their memories and make connections with help from music, photographs, and films. 

The cafe also helps people access help and support on living well with the condition.

The team at Lyle Gateway have teamed up with Alzheimer's Scotland Inverclyde to host the cafe which runs every month at Lyle Kirk in Greenock.
