Whether you volunteer at your local Community Cafe or Charity Shop, this training is designed for those of us who may come into contact with an individual living with dementia.

Dementia Friends help people living with dementia in lots of ways, both big and small. From being more patient in a shop queue, to helping someone find the right bus, every action counts.

Dementia Friends Scotland allows you to gain a better understanding of dementia and the things you can do to help people living with dementia be a valued part of their local community. It is not an accreditation or a befriending service and Dementia Friends are not asked to visit people living with dementia.

This training is offered free to volunteers of CTSI Member Organisations. If you are not sure if your organisation is a member with CTSI, please contact admin@ctsi.org.uk to check.
