Our young onset dementia webinars
We are hosting a series of young onset dementia webinars which focus on improving the experience of diagnosis for younger people with (suspected) dementia and their families.
Our aim is to facilitate the sharing of knowledge and experience amongst professionals to improve understanding of issues relating to the experience of young onset diagnosis, how those issues might be resolved and the resultant benefits.
