Creating dementia-inclusive cultural venues at Museum of London

The London Arts & Culture Dementia Friendly Network are a group of cultural organisations passionate about being dementia-friendly. They work together to advocate for a dementia-friendly arts and culture sector in London.

Swadhinata Trust was invited to take part as a speaker at the event on Wednesday 24th November 2021

The event was split into two parts – the first part explored dementia-inclusive design and the second part explored ethnicity and dementia which our Chair Julie Begum contributed to with:-

  1.  The challenges faced by South Asian communities living with dementia
  2.  Provision that already exists and what is needed
  3.  How cultural venues may be able to respond to the need/s
