A brief overview of our blogs in 2023

[ad_1]

We launched our weekly blog in June 2014 and through our weekly blogs posts we’ve found new ways of connecting colleagues, carers and people living with dementia with each other. We’ve created a whole new kind of community that lets people share their work and passion in dementia.  In this week’s blog we are sharing a snapshot of our  blogs from 2023 from a range of our blog writers.
