Whether you are a business or organisation already delivering services or products linked to dementia care and wellbeing or have an interest in this area, you are invited to join this two day health innovation workshop to re-imagine care solutions for the future.

Whether you are a business or organisation already delivering services or products linked to dementia care and wellbeing or have an interest in this area, you are invited to join us to re-imagine care solutions for the future.

Delivered over two days (3rd & 16th October), this workshop is for leaders and entrepreneurs with an ambition to set up, grow, or nurture a business, charity, or social enterprise that makes a positive impact on health. Working with experts in dementia care you will learn to use an innovation tool 'Design Thinking'. The tool will help you to explore ideas, understand users’ needs, problem solve, and develop better products and services for people living with dementia.

Unlike other business workshops or courses, we come at the development of products and services from a social perspective. You will explore how social, economic, and environmental factors affect a person’s health and wellbeing, and explore innovative ways you could shape new health and wellbeing solutions. You will also have the opportunity to meet and network with like-minded people.
