All aboard for the next Buckfastleigh Memory Café outing this half term. We’re journeying to Totnes and back on the South Devon Railway, and this month we’re setting off a little earlier than usual as it's half term time — please note the 2.30pm departure instead of our usual 3.45pm.
If you’re living with dementia or other memory problems, do come along with a companion for a gentle, friendly afternoon on board. It’s half term, so grandchildren are warmly welcome too. Parking, refreshments, conversation and a joyous trip out are all free; we simply suggest a donation of £3 per person if you can.
The South Devon Railway is a much-loved heritage line running between Buckfastleigh and Totnes alongside the River Dart — expect big skies, birds over the water, and that lovely unhurried pace that makes the journey part of the treat.
