Making Space is a National Charity; we exist to support and enable everyone affected by mental illness, learning disabilities or dementia. Our aim quite simply is for people to have freedom to enjoy everyday life.

Springboard’s group objectives are to provide a safe, welcoming peer group to support people and their families, friends and carers who are suffering from all types of dementia and its effects within the Metropolitan Borough of Oldham and it’s surrounding areas.
Springboard provide emotional and practical support, advice, education and try to raise public awareness of memory problems. Group members aim to deliver facilities and social activities to fill the recreation and leisure time of people suffering from all types of dementia and their families, friends and carers in the interests of social welfare and with the object of improving their quality of life. The group also aims to give a voice to people with a diagnosis of dementia.
