Autumn training starting soon @Understandingdm
Most courses tell you what dementia does to the brain, body and behaviour. Ours focus on the person, and what we can do to lessen the impact of dementia on their well-being. For more details and booking see tinyurl.com/3zpuh8tp

Looking forward to presenting at #RCOT2024 this afternoon on Dementia: learning from the expert in our care @theRCOT @RCOT_OP @Understandingdm
Our training for health and care professionals working with people who live with dementia have been described as game changing. We have a space on our course that starts in two weeks.

Lessening the Impact of Dementia - for health & care professionals.
Dementia training often has too much biomedical bias. Rather than focusing on deficits or fighting dementia as a disease, we work positively with the condition as a disability.
Book now for Jan or April start.
After running a successful series of virtual Quiz Nights, we are looking forward to holding our first in-person Quiz for four years - in Charvil near Reading.
We are delighted to have the support of Julie Sugden who is running the #YorkshireMarathon this Sunday. Anyone can donate via Dementia training in Reading & West Berkshire (thegoodexchange.com) Go Julie!
