In 1982, Dr. Chris Moran launched the ‘Pain Relief And Management Association’ to offer help to recently discharged hospital patients in Dorset. At that time, support was provided from a few local church volunteers. Since then it has grown and developed into a thriving charity.
In 2017 PramaLife was created to provide and collaborate in community based activity groups for adults and carers who need support to continue living full lives independently, whether that’s from ill health, disability or age related issues.
Today, PramaLife deliver a wide range of activities and services which look to directly tackle social isolation, increase personal independence, and help people enjoy life as they age. As well as providing unique services for people living with Dementia and their family Carers.
The shared values at Prama are Inclusivity; Promoting a positive image of ageing; Provide high quality support; Learning and development; Partnership work; Integrity.
