The aim of this training package is to produce a free resource which aims to raise awareness of what dementia is and how it affects people with dementia along with their family, relatives, carers, friends and significant others. This training manual can also be used to reduce stigma, reduce isolation and create more dementia friendly communities which are better able to care for people with dementia and their carers.
The training was delivered to the following organisations: National Health Service (NHS) organisations such as hospitals and dental surgeries; GP Practices and Medical Centres; Social Services; Private and Third Sector organisations such as Care Homes as well as Universities.
