Join us during Dementia Action Week, from May 19 to 25, 2025, as we celebrate the impactful work of applied dementia researchers dedicated to enhancing the lives of those affected by dementia.

Dementia Care Research: What’s that all about then?

What’s on offer?

Many people have experience of living with dementia or know someone who is affected by dementia. Earlier this year, we engaged with local communities and asked people what they would like to know about dementia care research.

What’s it about?

Research in dementia care aims to improve care by focusing on approaches that place the people living with the condition at the centre. The research is wide-ranging, for example, from primary care support, home care services, to supporting fun activities. Here, we invited the public to tell us what they would like to know about dementia care research, to find out what is important to them.
