Great to be here 😊. Interesting to hear more ways that services can be integrated and services joined up. Certainly our initial data suggests veterans living with dementia can ‘fall through the gaps’ in services @AntheaInnes @Vets_DementiaGM

We now head into parallel sessions highlighting the latest research across three strands. Our first looks at the Lifespan with Cheyenne Kohere @ToiOhomai, Dr David Turgoose @UniversityLeeds, Dr Camila Guindalini@GMRF & @DrLydiaMorris @OfficialUoM (chair: @ntfear) #vmhc2024 pic.twitter.com/RoH1FzBYmg

I found this brilliant infographic today by @mindmypeelings on the window of tolerance - trying to stay in a calm mindset. It made a lot of sense to me, so hopefully you will find it helpful too! Their blog post is here: mindmypeelings.com/blog/window-of….

Two inspiring days at #UKDC as well as co-presenting for the first time with @DrLydiaMorris! Thanks to @JDementiaCare and all involved. Here’s my obligatory @EmpConvTrial awkward poster photo (poster available at tinyurl.com/3j4vtmpc) #ResearchGMMH #TogetherGMMH

Excited to be here! Come say hello and visit the @gilbreacentre @McMasterHAS booth if you are at #CAG_2023

Fantastic talk from @CatherineTalb presenting our research on unpaid carers’ experiences of supporting people living with dementia to use social media #LiverpoolDementia

One of the most artistic researchers today at the #liverpooldementia conference: @rasamikelyte. Let’s talk about #death openly, the meaning of a GOOD death in #dementia across #UK & #Brazil. #cultural meaningful #palliativecare

Top tips from @tide_carers for researchers on how to involve carers in research #LiverpoolDementia - Recognise their value - Produce jargon-free summaries - Don’t assume - Online works well (esp. if current carer) - If in doubt, ask! - Pay for their expertise and time!

So excited to see our #DementiaInequalitiesGame at the conference - come to the @lbsorg stall for info - available for purchase tomorrow most likely! #LiverpoolDementia

Conversations at #LiverpoolDementia again highlight the need for care partners of people living with dementia around communication & stress. Key to well-being and relationships. Let’s get Empowered Conversations out there! @emP_Convos @EmpConvTrial @ProfYelizPrior @warrenmansell

What a fantastic turnout for the 5th annual Liverpool Dementia and Ageing Research Conference. Attendees are using this time to network and re-connect 🤝 @ClarissaGiebel @LivUniIPH @LivUniEngageHLS #LiverpoolDementia

Really interesting to find out the varieties of experience of technology of people living with dementia and their carers. Sounds like the key thing is having online / tech as well as in person options. Also confirm that Older Adults can certainly use tech 😊#LiverpoolDementia

Great to be hear at the Liverpool Dementia & Ageing conference. Encouraging to hear of the work to improve access to Allied Health Professionals for people living with dementia and their carers @ClarissaGiebel @laurabraithslt

Interesting reading @AntheaInnes @keithgeraghty

💔Thank you Tony, for brilliantly capturing the issues & feelings of people living with dementia. Your wonderful illustrations meant so much & your generosity of spirit & constant campaigning was inspirational. You will be missed by all of us in Greater Manchester🐝 #TonyHusband

Tomorrow ⁦@APPGDementia⁩ report 'Raising the Barriers: An Action Plan to Tackle Regional Variation in Diagnosis in England' ⁦@guardian⁩ has written about the scale of the postcode lottery in dementia diagnosis sharing many personal experiences theguardian.com/society/2023/o…

@AntheaInnes @FiMTrust Fab day, many thanks to all that came! @keithgeraghty priorities exercise went down well- thanks for your work on this 😊

Thanks to @FiMTrust and all participants at our workshop today where we have started to think about priorities for veterans living with dementia. Signposting to services, support for families, involvement of veterans living with dementia in designing services all key.
