Dementia Action Week takes place from Monday 21st to Sunday 27th May 2018. One person develops dementia every three minutes, yet too many face it alone. This Dementia Action Week, Warwickshire County Council and partners are calling on Warwickshire residents and workforce to take action (whether big or small) to improve the everyday lives of people affected by dementia.
You could find out more about local services and support available and signpost to these services, become a Dementia Friend, learn more about reducing your risk of developing dementia, or find out more about dementia through Reading Well Books on Prescription.
