Lovejoy Centre

Lovejoy Centre Providing activities for older people. Day centre service, community trips, working with people with dementia. And support to AC's in their job role. This is me!

Ann Marie Lovejoy Bruce- Kerr, founder and creator of the Lovejoy Centre, our sessions and our products. I love what I do and have a true passion for it. I want to help make the jobs of Activity Coordinators that bit more easier by delivering sessions and creating products that bring variety, fun and stimulate memory and social interaction in a joyful way. My philosophy is to provide a service of

the highest standard which meets the individual needs of each client we engage with. Their wishes and individuality are respected and given the utmost consideration when our activity sessions are designed. This helps me to work alongside care home management to promote individuality with dignity. Also, the role of the activity coordinator is often overlooked and is a very lonely place, so I champion the work AC's do and offer support, training and have created an online tribe of AC's providing advice, support and encouragement. and an online academy. I know first hand how powerful engaging activities are for older people who have dementia or live in a care home setting. Lovejoy Centre was started in 2011 and my passion has grown and has created dementia-friendly products for activities as well. I also do an annual care show and activity coordinator awards each year.

☀️🌊 Out & About Club 🌊☀️
What a beautiful day our Out & About Club had today visiting Worthing Pier and seafront!

Everyone enjoyed a lovely walk by the sea, taking in the sunshine and fresh air, followed of course by a well-earned ice cream 🍦😊

We also had a lovely surprise visit from the Worthing Town Crier, which everyone thoroughly enjoyed, and we are very grateful to Community Transport for helping support our service users . ❤️

Back at the centre, we continued the fun with activities, conversation, laughter, and time together. Days like this are so important creating opportunities for companionship, stimulation, reminiscence, and joy.

It was wonderful seeing everyone relaxed, smiling, and enjoying the simple pleasures of a sunny seaside day. ☀️

🌸 Dementia Action Week 🌸

In honour of Dementia Action Week, we are delighted to share some very special news.

Katrina’s beautiful prayer over us in the minibus during our recent day trip to Bognor Regis will now be shared across the UK through the medium of radio this morning on Hannah Lovejoy’s show on Premier Gospel Radio. 🎙️

This feels incredibly moving and poignant for us all.

It perfectly reflects what Dementia Action Week is truly about — raising awareness, valuing every voice, recognising the importance of connection, and supporting those living with dementia and their families with dignity, compassion, love, and community.

At the Lovejoy Centre, this is something we strive to do every single week through outings, activities, companionship, reminiscence, laughter, listening, and creating meaningful moments together.

We are so proud that this precious moment will now touch hearts far beyond our minibus journey. 💜 Have a listen it’s on NOW 10am-1 pm.

💜 A Lovely Day Out with Wednesday group.
Today we enjoyed a wonderful outing together to Bognor Regis Museum and had such a lovely time reminiscing, exploring, chatting, laughing, and making special memories together.
There was so much to see including old shops, vintage radios, seaside displays, toys from the past, and lots of wonderful items that sparked conversation and reminiscence amongst the group.
It was beautiful to see friendships growing, smiles appearing, and everyone enjoying companionship and community together.
These outings are so important in helping reduce isolation, encourage social connection, stimulate memories, and bring joy to older adults living with dementia and memory difficulties.
A huge thank you to everyone who came along today and helped make the day so special. 💙
Here are just a few photographs from our outing today 😊
