As part of Dementia Action Week, our Sport Welfare Officer Rowena has been delivering a series of online webinars and Dementia Friends sessions to help raise awareness and improve understanding of dementia.

As Rowena explains, “One in three people born today will experience dementia. It’s really important that everybody has that basic understanding so that people living with dementia can live well with their condition.”

A huge thank you to Rowena for leading this important work and helping to create more informed, supportive communities 💚
