Many people of all ages are living with memory loss.

Tower Hamlets CVS is working with the NIHR-funded Policy Research Unit on Dementia and Neurodegeneration at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL).

Join us for this event to be part of the conversation between researchers and service providers on how we can better support people with memory loss to have a voice in research and service design.

At this event you will:

  • Find out about the latest research
  • Explore innovative approaches to engaging with users

We will be looking at:

  • Participatory prevention
  • Diagnosis and treatment
  • Workforce
  • Care services

Together we will explore how we can strengthen research with, and for, the communities affected by memory loss.
