Stories about our Resources
‘Negative vs positive language – have used the infographic to support carers to communicate more effectively and change views on negative labelling.’
‘Getting conversations going about the language we use when talking about BPSD and helping staff generate new positive approaches.’
‘Often very useful if talking to a carer of a person with dementia, to be able to show them a visual representation of what’s being discussed. This can make it easier for them to retain the information.’
‘Helping me to overcome and manage my feelings of frustration and anger and guilt as observed through your advice on how to better modify my reactions and behaviour to cope with my mum’s dementia.’
‘Using art to help regain/maintain and develop skills. Through art expressions of unmet need and reminiscence can be exposed in ways other techniques may not uncover.’
‘They stimulated conversation and questions when I displayed several of the infographics during Dementia Action Week at the Acute Hospital Trust.’
Stories from Learners

‘There was a time when I was a bullied, this training has helped me get my confidence back and to deal with situations myself.’
‘Staff attending training are more content, confident and change their practice and attitude.’
‘I have informed colleagues and recommended they attend and will use more Care Act sensitive language in MDT discussions.’
‘We have improved our practice a lot by reducing admission to hospital, reducing antipsychotic, reducing falls.’
‘Following equality and diversity – it has allowed me to integrate and discuss current discrimination issues and able to ensure I am inclusive with activity planning for our community groups for people living with dementia.’
‘Have made a list and handed to the home manager so that we get an outstanding in our next CQC inspection. This list is what is missing at the home.’
