Becoming a Dementia Friendly Community - 14th February

There are a growing number of groups and organisations looking at what they can do be be more dementia friendly.

The 3 hour workshop is an opportunity to:

• Hear about some work going on across the country
• Focus on what is a Dementia Friendly Community
• Look at the 9 key principles developed by the Life Changes Trust
• Share your experiences and learn from each other

We will also share with you thoughts and examples from people with lived experience and other organisations who are part of the DFC network.

The Dementia Training team at Age Scotland have developed a new suite of workshops aimed at members of the Dementia Friendly Communities Network. This is a network of Scottish dementia friendly communities sharing support, empowerment and inspiration with people living with dementia and unpaid carers, in their own community. You are welcome to join these workshops as an individual or as a member of group/community organisation (even if you’re not yet a member of the Dementia Friendly Communities Network). To learn more about the work of the network, see Dementia Friendly Communities Network (ageuk.org.uk)

This online workshop will take place using Zoom. We look forward to welcoming you to our event.
