Dementia Action Alliance – What Can You Do?

Everyone has knowledge, skills and time that can make a difference and support a dementia friendly community – what you do depends on you. Your passion, your experience, skills and time.  Everyone has connections that can help – we often say it is like a dot-to-dot picture! When you join people and places up you start to make a difference.

 

We are always looking for people to help us promote the work of the Dementia Action Alliance.

 

There will be no terms, conditions or expectations, time commitments will be arranged to suit your lifestyle.

 

Your role could be anything from:

  • Assisting our enablers in delivering Dementia Awareness Sessions.
  • Raising Awareness of Dementia throughout the community of the Forest of Dean.
  • Host Stalls and Information Stands to spread awareness.
  • Assist with any events throughout the year.
  • Running or volunteering at Memory Cafes.
  • Coordinating volunteers and Memory Cafes.
  • Using whatever skills, experience and passions you have to make a difference to someone.

We cannot do this on our own… we need you to help make the Forest of Dean Dementia Friendly.

 

We are also open to suggestions, so why not get in touch to chat about your ideas and any thoughts you might have.

 

Together, we can really make a difference to the lives of people living with dementia and their friends, families, and carers within the Forest of Dean.

 

Full Support and education will also be provided.  We are supported by the Dementia Education Training Strategy for Gloucestershire which means that our work is based on quality standards and consistent messages
