Description

A Dementia Friend is someone who, through viewing a series of online videos or attending a live session, learns about what it's like to live with dementia and then turns that understanding into action. 

During this one hour workshop, you will learn how to:

  • Describe dementia and know the most common type of dementia
  • State the five key messages about dementia
  • Explain one approach to effectively communicate with a person with dementia
  • Commit to an action as a Dementia Friend in their community

Anyone of any age can be a Dementia Friend. We all have a part to play in creating dementia friendly communities!

The Zoom link will be sent out prior to the event so be on the lookout for an email from us!
