Dementia Harrogate 2013: a national priority

 

• Following the Prime Minister's challenge launched last year, there has never been a time of more public and political interest in dementia.

• Aiming to deliver major improvements in dementia care and research by 2015, there has been excellent progress, but there is still much to do.

• Would you like to learn how this momentum is being maintained and built upon?

• How will policies around personalisation, integration and funding of care and support improve the lives of those living with dementia and their families?
