Attendance
PAVO's Health and Wellbeing Team facilitates this network, with input from service users, third sector organisations and the PTHB Powys Dementia Steering Group.
Anyone with an interest in or experience of living with dementia is welcomed. There is normally a mix of statutory services and voluntary organisations, with good representation from those living with dementia or caring for someone.
Dates
The Powys Dementia Network is held every 6 months, usually in January and July. The purpose of the network is to enable the voice of those living with dementia to be heard. They and their carers are able to talk about what matters to them, so they can influence decisions about how services are provided in Powys. The networks also enable organisations to share best practice and let people know about their services.
The next Dementia Network is planned for Summer '24
Those who are on the email list will be informed of the rescheduled date.
