Dementia Friendly Communities - Three diary dates

Dementia Friends Champions are trained volunteers who run Dementia Friends Information Sessions and encourage their family, friends and local community to learn a little bit about dementia, and inspire them to help people with dementia to live well.

Be part of the social change that’s helping to create dementia friendly communities!

The next Dementia Friends Champion Training day will take place on Saturday, 14th November, 10 – 4pm at the Clive Richards Room, Christ College, Brecon. Booking is essential.
