We're thrilled that this carer is joining our Lay Advisory Group. If anyone else is interested, we are always looking for people with dementia and their families and friends to advise us on our research. x.com/alysgriffiths_…
Spent a couple of hours on the phone to a carer of someone with dementia this afternoon getting feedback on some research materials. Her advice to me: live every minute of your life to the full.
Great piece from Wendy - #dementiatraining important for *all* health/social care staff & learning from people living w dementia #livingwell x.com/WendyPMitchell…
If professionals don't listen to people living with dementia in their training how can they understand the reality? whichmeamitoday.wordpress.com/2017/05/02/spe…
