Our LD and Dementia Links/Champions session today was around exploring the values they hold as a person which contributes to the current workplace cultures they have and how this affects person-centred care for people with learning disabilities and dementia.

Roxanne & Karen supporting a dementia awareness project by the Gurdwara in Ilford. Community support is vital, as those we reach today may come into the hospital tomorrow. By fostering understanding, families feel supported and patients receive compassionate, tailored care.

Roxanne from BHR and the Alzheimer’s Society led our first dementia awareness session at the Gurdwara in Ilford. This vital work helps support our community, including when individuals with dementia attend hospital. Awareness and understanding are key to reaching those affected.
