Dementia friendly Yorkshire: first steps on the journey

By Joseph Rowntree Foundation (2014)

This collection contains 20 examples of inspiring grassroots dementia-friendly projects transforming communities across Yorkshire. These projects are taking place in shops, churches, mosques, gurdwaras, legal services and cafes, and in public services such as transport, museums, hospitals, trading standards, schools, libraries, and sports centres. Local ‘champions’ are behind most of this work, and show how we can each play our role in making our own community or organisation a welcoming and supportive place for people with dementia.
