I’m hoping there are a few more occupational therapists out there who will complete my survey. Please share your experiences of accessing assistive technology for people with dementia. Are services available? What needs to change? qmu.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/at-needs-asses…

FALLS AWARENESS WEEK Did you know research tells us people with dementia are at higher risk of falling, and 3x more likely to sustain a fractured hip because of a fall? Engaging in seated exercises is a great way to try and maintain our movement. #thinkfalls #ELFallsAwareness

As part of #FallsAwarenessWeek we are thrilled to be doing a #WalkingAidAmnesty. Whatever NHS or council provided walking aid that you no longer need, we would love to have it back. That way we can get it refurbished and then issued out to those who now need it! #ELFallsAwareness
