Dementia Friendly Holidays

A dementia diagnosis shouldn’t mean you have to stop going on holiday. In fact, a change of scenery is more important than ever. Holidays are a chance to explore new places, as well as relax and recharge. With the right amount of holiday planning and support, anything is possible. Whether it’s an accessible holiday in Paris, dementia friendly holiday cottages, or dementia holidays in Scotland, Dementia and holidays can go hand in hand.

Limitless Travel has a variety of dementia friendly holidays, including dementia holidays abroad. We understand the needs of those living with dementia and have created a range of holidays for dementia sufferers that are also fully wheelchair accessible and disabled friendly.

For those who require dementia care at home, we provide holiday care which is delivered by qualified, experienced and friendly care staff, with experience in caring for the elderly and pensioners. Read on for the answers to some frequently asked questions regarding our holidays for dementia patients.

Limitless Travel’s range of dementia holidays is based at hotels that are built specifically to cater for the needs of people with a range of physical and mental disabilities. This means that all public areas of the hotel are wheelchair accessible and disabled friendly, with spacious lifts accessing all floors.

There are roomy dining areas, and all dietary requirements can be catered for. In guest rooms, travellers can expect lots of open space, with en suite, wet room bathroom facilities and roll-in showers.

In all our dementia friendly hotels in the UK and abroad, there are usually lots of light and spacious public areas to enjoy. Facilities in the hotel are well signposted for easy access.

We offer a variety of holiday care packages on each and every one of our holidays for people with dementia. From emotional support to one-to-one care, our qualified and experienced dementia care staff are on hand to take care of you on your holiday. Every booking made is followed up by a phone call with our Care Manager, who will create a bespoke holiday care plan for you.

You will receive support from our office team in the run-up to your holiday, and in addition to the care team, you will have the support of a Tour Manager on your holiday too. Our carers are well experienced in caring for a range of disabilities such as mobility impairments, deafness and autism.

On our dementia friendly holidays, there is a wide range of specialist mobility equipment available to make your holiday as accessible as possible. Our list of available equipment includes hoists, profiling beds, airflow mattresses, commodes, wheelchairs, bed rails, and much more.

There are also radio monitors available at selected locations. If you would like any more information about the types of mobility equipment available on our dementia holidays, please do not hesitate to call us on 0800 711 7232.

On all of our dementia friendly holidays, we provide fully wheelchair accessible coach transport from different pick-up points in the UK.

Limitless Travel vehicles are fitted with lifts, and there are spaces on board for wheelchairs to be secured into place on board, which means that there is no need to transfer from your wheelchair into a seat. If you are travelling from an airport we can coordinate to be on the same flight and offer support.
