I thought I might share a wee update on our ‘Make a Difference’ Campaign and tour as we approach 13,000  Personal Pledges to make a difference




We have engaged with nearly  70,000 people in person over the last 2 years at over 500 talks  and events , collecting pledges from health and social care professionals and we’d like to share some of their inspiring words, and help celebrate the work they do to putting pledges in to practice make a difference


We are very inspired by the different ways Individuals, Hospitals Universities Care Homes and Care at home teams have been putting pledges in to practice

You can read every pledge here at  https://dementiacarervoices.wordpress.com/pledges/

We have a short film to celebrate people and pledges

NHS Ayrshire and Arran made a film in partnership with the ALLIANCE and the University of the West of Scotland which shares the journey of the campaign and the impact it has had on the staff. 

The video is available to view at www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGLwzE8YAyM.





Thank you to all who have pledged and supported the campaign to date .We look forward to more meeting more people  who are making a difference for people living with dementia, Families and carers
