Our first series of young onset dementia webinars
We hosted a series of tea-time young onset dementia webinars from October 2020-June 2022.
They brought together Young Dementia Network members, people living with young onset dementia, family members, professionals working in the field and people interested in young onset dementia and created an opportunity to connect, support and inform each other.
