It's #DementiaActionWeek and we are reminded that behind every Forget Me Not is a real, clinical story - a life affected by dementia. We believe psychiatrists and health professionals can help shape these stories for the better. Through patient-centred care, deeper understanding and community support, individuals can receive the help they deserve. From diagnosis, to long-term care, our resources are designed to help you navigate the complexities of dementia, and strengthen your ability to respond to the diverse needs and realities of care. ✅Access them anytime, on the go, via the @rcpsych eLearning hub.

2 months to go until the inaugural Psychotherapy Research conference - evidence and its discontents. Join colleagues in-person in London for this thought-provoking and enriching event. Find further details and book: bit.ly/MedPsychResear… #MedPsychResearch @Giles_Story
