Alzheimer Scotland Annual Conference 2024
‘Your voice, Your choice, Your future’
Our Annual Conference will be held on Friday 20 September at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre (EICC). Free tickets are available for people with dementia and their carers. Tickets are available here
Following the positive feedback from last year’s delegates, the conference will once again be held in one large main room with round tables to facilitate networking and discussion.
Each conference session will be introduced by a person with personal experience. They will be followed by two or three more speakers, and the session will conclude with a 10-15 minute Q&A opportunity for audience members.
Doors will open from 9:30, with the main programme commencing at 10:00.
The conference theme is ‘Your voice, Your choice, Your future’ and will feature various plenary sessions, such as:
- Protecting personhood
- Practice innovations
- The future of long term care
- Around the world in 30 minutes
- Drug discovery and research
The conference will conclude at 16:30pm.
There will be multiple refreshment breaks throughout the day, ensuring delegates can enjoy our marketplace that will be hosting over 20 exhibitors. In addition, the marketplace will also host private 1-2-1 sessions offering individual advice from Alzheimer Scotland’s National Dementia Advisor service. Places with our National Dementia Advisors can be booked on the day of the conference, so be sure to sign up fast, as spaces will be awarded on a first-come-first-served basis.
More details of the conference, including the full programme, will be made available in the coming weeks.
