Dementia-friendly community programmes encourage everyone to share responsibility for ensuring that people with dementia feel understood, valued and able to contribute to their community.

Enabling people living with dementia to take an active part in society and be supported to do that by the community itself.

So, how can you help to make your pharmacy dementia friendly?

Think about what you can do in your pharmacy to:

• Raise awareness of dementia
• Support people living with dementia
• Support families, friends and carers of people living with dementia
• Having conversations with someone with dementia
• Raise awareness of dementia
• Promote local and national dementia support groups and organisations
• Make your pharmacy more dementia-friendly

More information about Dementia friendly communities can be found on the Alzheimers Society website.
