A free session run by a Dementia Friends Champion who will share information about dementia, and how you can help to create dementia friendly communities and workplaces. Open to staff from the voluntary sector and the NHS, and patient engagement representatives in K&C, Queens Park and Paddington.
After the session you will be informed about how to turn your understanding of dementia into a practical action. You will get lots of ideas about the actions you can take. Every action counts.
Dementia actions could include:
- behaving patiently with someone showing the signs of dementia
- spending more time with, helping or supporting a friend or relative affected by dementia
- signposting people affected by dementia to more information and support
- volunteering with an organisation to support people with dementia
- fundraising for a dementia-related cause
- helping your workplace to be more dementia friendly
- telling other people about Dementia Friends or spreading the word through social media
