'Dementia Friendly’ and the work of Dementia Friendly Communities focuses on improving inclusion and the quality of life for people living with dementia.
It’s about ensuring that people with dementia feel that they are part of their community, are more independent and have more choice and control over their lives.
From hospitals to libraries, public transport to cafes and restaurants, establishments that are alert to the possibility of a person having dementia help to improve their active involvement in society.
