Abstract

The Alzheimer's Society has developed a range of services including awareness campaigns, information for people with dementia and carers, peer support networks, dementia advisers and learning and education programmes. In our next article, Andrew Chidgey sets out the current evidence on dementia and advises on some of the big opportunities to change the quality of life for people with dementia. He also explains why the Alzheimer's Society has produced guidance on what commissioners need to consider when commissioning services for people with dementia.
