In advance of #DementiaActionWeek, our Project Development Co-ordinator attended #CornwallDementiaConference on Friday. It was so vital to be able to meet fellow stakeholders and members of the public, to talk about how our services can help.

We are delighted to be at the 4th Cornwall Dementia Conference. This year's focus is living well with dementia, which is one of our aims of our Creative Spaces project.

When words escape 81 of us
