Level 1 Dementia Awareness Training

“The session was fantastic. So thought provoking - points that we as officers / friends / even family would not have considered. Maisie and Linda really brought the subject to life and created a safe space for everyone to share as much or as little personal reflections as they wanted. We’d highly recommend the session to any individual or business wanting to find out more about dementia and how to help those living with the condition.”
Rushmoor Borough Council Oct 2023

Do you have a family member or friend living with Dementia?
Or perhaps you’d simply like to find out more?

Our Level 1 Dementia Awareness short session provides not only a brief overview of dementia, but also suggests some valuable hints & tips in relation to supporting those living with dementia. We’ve had amazing feedback from attendees & organisations who’ve already experienced the session (see end of document) with 100% of attendees stating that they would recommend the session to others.*

Harlow Hall have kindly allowed us to deliver our November training sessions at their venue. This is a lovely accessible venue with comfy seating, free parking & lift access to the second floor.

The Session:

Our Level 1 Dementia Awareness Training session offers an introduction to Dementia awareness. This excellent overview covers areas such as:

  • Gaining a basic understanding of Dementia

  • Recognising some of the indicators of Dementia

  • Gaining a better understanding of the impact of memory loss & decision making

  • Recognising some of the indicators of Dementia

  • Better understanding the principles of creating Dementia friendly environments

  • Better understanding the basic communication principles & areas to consider when supporting those living with Dementia, including an activity giving an insight into communication with people affected by Dementia

The session comprises circa 1 hour of training + up to 30 minutes group question time. Please note that the session provides general information that we hope will be useful to you – it does not include advice & support for people’s personal situations.

“I found the training session very informative especially as I have a parent who has Dementia and the other parent is caring for them at home. Just having the opportunity to listen to the trainer talk about the environment where someone with dementia lives made me think about small changes my family could make to their home environment to make things slightly easier for the parent with dementia. Thank you for the training session.”

“Maisie and Linda delivered the training in a professional, welcoming way. I felt comfortable from the start and Maisie's wealth of experience and passion about the subject of dementia came through straightaway. I would recommend this course to anyone who would like a basic understanding of dementia, in the workplace or the community in which they live.”

“A big thank you to Maisie for delivering such a thought provoking and eye-opening session. It really helped me to challenge some of my existing thoughts and frustrations I've had personally and just gave me a good nudge to be in that compassionate headspace.”
Dementia Level 1 Course participant 2023

“Excellent session - it made me realise what a scary place the world can be for those suffering with dementia. Loads of food for thought. Thank you.”
