It has been a busy 12 months for the Young Dementia Network and as we approach our first anniversary at the end of September we are delighted to annouce the Network has 938 members.
In the past year we have –
Successfully launched the Network, created a diagnostic guide for GPs, influenced the Memory Service National Accreditation Programme leading to the adoption of new national standards around young onset, created a care pathway for young onset dementia and connected members so they are able to share experience and good practice.
Our future plans include –
Webinars and events, a new young onset research area on our website and we’ll be creating information for the general public to go into GP surgeries and memory clinics so we have a busy and exciting time ahead.
