As well as anniversary celebrations, the Kilmarnock centre will also be holding its annual Dementia Awareness Week concert tomorrow (Thursday).
The Alzheimer Scotland Brain Health and Dementia Resource Centre in Kilmarnock is celebrating 10 years in the town.
East Ayrshire Council Provost Jim Todd will be joining in the celebrations – exactly a decade since he officially opened the centre. The sell-out event will see more than 200 guests gather at the town’s Park Hotel from 7pm. They will enjoy a range of music acts including Ayrshire Ukelele Clan, local Elvis performer John Reid, musician Charlie Gorman and Musichoir. Event host and actor/singer Jonny Griffen will also be singing hits from Proclaimer's stage show Sunshine on Leith.
"Having this dedicated centre will allow staff to develop more groups and supports to help ensure that people with dementia and their carers receive the level of support that they need."
