Our webinars
Learning Disability and Dementia – Truth or Myth?
Wednesday 24 Jun 2026 — 12:30pm – 1:30pm
People with a learning disability are at higher risk of developing dementia at a younger age, but how much do we really understand about their experience? This webinar explores common assumptions, separating myth from reality around diagnosis, presentation, support and the importance of brain health.
More than hearing: How listening difficulties can lead to social isolation and cognitive risk
Tuesday 30 Jun 2026 — 12:30pm – 1:30pm
Social connection is vital for brain health. This webinar explores how untreated hearing loss can gradually reduce engagement in older adults, often before isolation is obvious, impacting wellbeing, loneliness, and cognition. Learn why early awareness and support are key to protecting connection and quality of life as we age.
From Evidence to Practice: Using Nature to Support Brain Health and Dementia Care
Thursday 30 Jul 2026 — 12:30pm – 1:30pm
Explore the biological impact of nature on the body and brain, why these benefits are often underused in everyday care, and how to apply simple, effective nature-based approaches in practice.
