Thanks to Forces in Mind Trust and all participants at our workshop today where we have started to think about priorities for veterans living with dementia. Signposting to services, support for families, involvement of veterans living with dementia in designing services all key.

💔Thank you Tony, for brilliantly capturing the issues & feelings of people living with dementia. Your wonderful illustrations meant so much & your generosity of spirit & constant campaigning was inspirational. You will be missed by all of us in Greater Manchester🐝 #TonyHusband

Top tips from tide - together in dementia everyday for researchers on how to involve carers in research #LiverpoolDementia - Recognise their value - Produce jargon-free summaries - Don’t assume - Online works well (esp. if current carer) - If in doubt, ask! - Pay for their expertise and time!

Great to be hear at the Liverpool Dementia & Ageing conference. Encouraging to hear of the work to improve access to Allied Health Professionals for people living with dementia and their carers Dr Clarissa Giebel 🇪🇺 🇩🇪 @laurabraithslt

Really interesting to find out the varieties of experience of technology of people living with dementia and their carers. Sounds like the key thing is having online / tech as well as in person options. Also confirm that Older Adults can certainly use tech 😊#LiverpoolDementia

Conversations at #LiverpoolDementia again highlight the need for care partners of people living with dementia around communication & stress. Key to well-being and relationships. Let’s get Empowered Conversations out there! The Empowered Communications Approach Empowered Conversations Trial @ProfYelizPrior Warren Mansell 🌍🌿🐼 🌈

I found this brilliant infographic today by I’m Going Bananas 🍌 on the window of tolerance - trying to stay in a calm mindset. It made a lot of sense to me, so hopefully you will find it helpful too! Their blog post is here: mindmypeelings.com/blog/window-of….

Great to be here 😊. Interesting to hear more ways that services can be integrated and services joined up. Certainly our initial data suggests veterans living with dementia can ‘fall through the gaps’ in services Anthea Innes Veterans_DementiaGM
