Developing a Dementia Friendly Community

Come along to find out how you can get involved!

Are you interested in developing your knowledge and practice skills in supporting people and their families and carers living with dementia? Would you like to become a ‘Dementia Friend'? Being part of this Dementia Special Interest Group (SIG) will provide you with opportunities to be part of a community of practice that will enable you to develop your knowledge and skills. There are volunteering opportunities with local agencies, i.e. care homes and hospitals, where you will be supported to spend time with people living with dementia and get to know them as a person and look beyond their diagnosis.

At this event we will have guest speakers from Kingston Hospital, local services, students, and practitioners, sharing their knowledge of supporting people living with dementia and outlining the positive learning opportunities available to you.

Please come along to the event to find out more!

Booking is essential to attend this event.
