Episode 4 with Dr Stephanie Daley discusses the project time for dementia and how students can gain a unique perspective and insight into dementia as a condition. We talk about how the programme plans to develop and work around issues caused by the COVID-19 outbreak.  An exciting new project inspired by the success of the time for dementia one titled time for autism and how families can get involved and support the project. We find out what a dementia care mapper is and touch on how e-learning will be helping students moving forward with the time for dementia project.

Taken from the Alzheimers UK website about the project - 

"It’s a good way for them to gain knowledge first-hand of what it’s like living with dementia and the challenges they have to overcome. There are more than 67,500 people living with dementia in Kent Surrey and Sussex and it’s crucial that more people in the field of healthcare are aware of the condition."  (Alzhiemers.org.uk, 2020)
