Dementia Carers Co-Production Workgroup
Chair: SSRG Project Officer
The Dementia Carers Co-Production Workgroup is made up of carers who care for a loved one with dementia, and coordinators from key organisations.
The workgroup meets monthly to work on projects specific to carers, through a co-design process. The aim of the projects is to support other carers in similar situations by sharing their experiences and journey.
