Anthony Hassall, chief executive officer for Pennine Care NHS met with the EDUCATE group. Great to share our stories and to discuss future support for the prokject.

Stockport MP Navendu Mishra invited our EDUCATE group to his MP surgery. We discussed the lived experience of dementia work we are doing and local issues for people living with dementia. 

Our Educators were invited to Salford University to talk to mental health students as part of their lived experience week. They received great feedback and positive to educate future health professionals about dementia.

Our Intergenerational choir performed at The Meadows Community Hospital for patients, relatives and staff.

A lovely Christmas carol concert that was enjoyed by all! We hope to make this an annual event

Last month our Educators were treated to a lovely afternoon tea at Stockport Plaza - celebrating the success of the Doing Dementia Differently event in the summer!

Our Doing Dementia Differently - Big Band Extravaganza at Stockport Plaza!

Over 1,000 people attended including people living with dementia with their family and friends, and residents in local care homes.

A great afternoon of music from the New Lights Big Band, performances from the children at Stockport School, our intergenerational choir along with important messages about living with dementia.

Educator and former police officer Steve gave a talk to the National Association of Retired Police Officers NARPO this month about his lived experience of dementia. A brilliant talk as usual and very important to share. And to thank them for their very kind donation to EDUCATE!

Two of our fabulous Educators - Sarah & Colin - gave a talk to Salford University mental health nursing students in March about their experiences of living with different types of dementia. Lots of great discussion and questions from the students!
