How you can offer support
There are almost 1 million people living with dementia in the UK, and over 42,000 of those people are under 65. You might know someone living with dementia, or come into contact with people living or caring for those with dementia in your place of work. At Dementia Support, we want to share our wealth of experience to help eliminate the stigma surrounding dementia, but also make the world a place where it is understood, accepted and treated with empathy across all sectors.

Where are the sessions held?
We are based at our Tangmere hub, Sage House in West Sussex. Your group can come to us, we can travel to you or we can organise an online session for the whole team! Our sessions are interactive and engaging so tend to work best in person, however we can deliver virtually if distance requires.
We also hold monthly sessions open to any individual at Sage House, please select a date below to book your place.
To make a booking or query for your group or business, please fill out the form below, or email Jacquie Pond: educationandlearning@dementiasupport.org.uk
