Creating Dementia-Friendly Communities Most people know someone living with, or affected by dementia - friend, neighbour, family, colleague. A dementia-friendly community supports people to continue to live well by increasing understanding of dementia and the small, supportive actions that can make a huge difference.
Creating a dementia-friendly community simply means: . finding out what people living with dementia in the community value and want to keep doing and also what can make that hard. There might be some very simple solutions. For example, someone might want to go shopping but fear missing their stop and feeling disorientated and lost. Bus drivers who understand that this can happen, offering friendly support to make sure they get off at the right stop, can make all the difference. . increasing understanding and breaking down the stigma surrounding dementia . shops, businesses, organisations and individuals taking very simple actions that will make life easier for people affected by dementia . local leadership, celebrating support where its already happening and encouraging others to do the same.
We can all benefit from a community that is dementia-friendly. Who doesn’t appreciate simple kindness, helpful service and clearly signed, easily accessible places?
Alzheimer’s Society can provide resources, advice and tools for you to make it happen, and offer you chances to connect with other communities doing the same. You can become part of a nationally recognised network of communities working to become dementia-friendly If you would like more information on how your community could become more dementia-friendly please contact Fiona Wynde at Alzheimer’s Society (Fiona.wynde@alzheimers.org.uk) |
