Speakers at Caring for Dementia Conference Devon

Incredible time at conference with workers from CQC, Purple Angels, Southern Shore Care and singer Anne Marie Waite. Made so many new friends. 


I was honoured to speak at this conference on my Model of person centred care approach and Dementia Detectives Care model. 

I also ran a drum workshop on using the drums for wellbeing and the attendees raised the roof and even wrote a song with me celebrating the day set aside to work towards even better support for people living with Dementia. 

I joined the Purple Angels as I met their founder Norm McNamara.....
