Dementia Community is hosting a webinar on Monday 7th September from 2-3pm titled 'We talk about shared careโ€ฆ but do we really live it?'

Through practical examples and lived experience they will examine what helps, what gets in the way, and how shared dementia care can become a reality rather than simply an aspiration. The session will also include signposting to free resources and an opportunity to ask questions.
