Caring for Someone with Dementia is a free course for carers at any point in your caring journey to help support you and give you tips and information.

It’s also an opportunity for you to hear from other people in the same situation, sharing experience, making connections and supporting each other. We recognise that in reality, the majority of invaluable information carers learn, they learn from experience. We want our training courses to be a source of both practical information, as well as an opportunity for carers to share their experiences. You will learn a lot from each other, and sharing your experiences might help in ways you didn't realise.

Each session will have a mix of information, interviews with experienced family carers, and breakout groups to discuss issues and burning questions you may have.
