Dementia Inclusion

Dementia board game 1

We offer free dementia inclusion training to clubs, groups and community organisations, designed to support you to carry out your activities in ways which include and involve people living with dementia as fully as possible.

Currently, we run scheduled courses on the following topics:

  • Making the home a dementia enabling environment
  • Dementia, wellbeing and mood
  • Communication and dementia
  • Dementia: Prevention and living well
  • Dementia inclusion and the LGBT+ community
  • Dementia Inclusive Cinema
  • Dementia and Befriending

We can also create a bespoke inclusion course for your organisation, club or group focusing on the particular issues that you face in providing dementia inclusive activities. We have already worked with a wide range of organisations and projects - from Scottish country dance groups, community cinema and intergenerational projects, to bowling and walking football clubs.

Whatever you do, if you want to make your activities more inclusive of people living with dementia, please talk to us about whether we could deliver training to support this.

If you have not previously attended one of our dementia courses, we recommend first undertaking one of the 'Dementia Awareness' workshops we run (either 2 or 3 hours), as this is a great introduction to the topic.
