Testimonials

  • “It’s such a relief to be listened to without being told I'm not well and need medication.” 

    “My husband has early onset dementia. Hopscotch helped me to learn all about dementia and how it affects the body and what I can do to help my husband. It means that I can support my husband with so much more confidence and feel better about this illness when talking to others about it. 

    My mum has been ill for so long with depression and it took Hopscotch to help my mum and I to sit together and talk, for the first time ever, about our relationship. Since then we’ve talked so much, and worked out a daily routine so we can live in harmony with one another. We’ve made up for all the years of not expressing ourselves. I’m really grateful for this service giving me this gift.

    I’ve felt invisible until I’ve come to Hopscotch and for the first time in my life I’ve been listened to without interruption and intervention. Just listening made me feel seen.
