We want Suffolk to be where people with #dementia feel safe in the knowledge that responsive services are based on an understanding of their needs and empowered to access information, advice, guidance, and support which is readily available whenever they or their families need it

Today, working in partnership with partners from health and building on the experiences of people living with dementia, we have launched a new strategy and vision for #dementia in #Suffolk . Let's end the stigma about dementia and help people live well. suffolk.gov.uk/care-and-suppo…
