Former First Minister, Henry McLeish launches advanced dementia care report to address unfair costs of care

Superstar Melissa Bremner has embarked on an exciting and creative challenge in performing 12 Christmas Concerts in wards and care homes around the West of Scotland to raise funds for Alzheimer Scotland. 

This report sets out an integrated and comprehensive, evidence-based approach to supporting people with dementia living at home during the moderate to severe stages of the illness.

Last summer Alzheimer Scotland announced plans for the UK’s first Outdoor Dementia Resource Centre at Badaguish Outdoor Centre near Aviemore, which will officially open in April 2023. Over the next six weeks the team will be taking the project on tour around Strathspey with their tipi as a mobile venue so people can find out more about and experience the services the new centre will provide.
