Konnektis were at the Dementia Action Alliance Conference on Wednesday 6th December, where discussions focused on the new dementia statements. Grounded in human rights laws, the statements are a call to improve the lives of people living with dementia by stating that they should not be treated differently. They also empower the families and carers of those living with dementia, who deserve to be recognised and supported. In this blog we highlight the key points discussed during the event and outline how we can implement the dementia statements into our day-to-day lives.
