The aim of the morning is to make us more aware of a condition that affects the lives of many of our parishioners and will help raise our awareness of issues that many people live with on a daily basis. The morning workshop will include What is dementia?

Communication Skills with a person affected by dementia, environmental factors, behaviours and what support is available.
