Dementia Awareness for Managers

Scottish Water Customer Service

Dementia is a workplace issue

There are over 90,000 people currently living with dementia in Scotland, and this number is expected to double in the next 25 years. As working beyond 65 becomes more common, more people will experience dementia symptoms while still in employment.

Our Dementia Awareness for Managers workshop focuses on recognising the signs and symptoms of dementia, providing effective communication strategies, and promoting inclusion for employees living with dementia. The workshop also covers action planning for dementia-inclusive workplaces, employer legal obligations, and HR provision assessment. 

As a result of attending the workshop, attendees will:

  • Understand the signs and symptoms of dementia
  • Learn skills to communicate effectively with those living with dementia
  • Foster a supportive workplace culture for employees with dementia, or those with caring responsibilities
  • Develop dementia-inclusive practices for both customers and colleagues

The dementia workshop was fantastic. The feedback from those that took part was incredible and we're already looking forward to the next one.

Staff have gained a deeper understanding of dementia, the issues faced by tenants and family members living with dementia and, more specifically, how this relates to housing.
