Several challenges in running and sustaining the program were also identified.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title><jats:p>Memory group interventions can be feasibly delivered in a community setting and increase service access opportunities for older people with memory problems.</jats:p></jats:sec>
