About the Awards

The Awards season is back for 2024, with a new look and theme as the Dementia Involvement Awards (previously: Dementia Hero Awards). Building on the success of the 2023 Awards, we are focusing on the theme of involvement, showcasing the best examples of involving people with lived experience. 

This is an opportunity to share and learn through excellent involvement from those who do it well and provide inspiration for the future of involvement.

Nominations

Nominations will open on Tuesday 19 March and close on Monday 20 May at 5pm. 

The Awards Ceremony will be held at a daytime event in London on Tuesday 10 September 2024.

What do we mean by involvement?

At Alzheimer’s Society we ensure that people affected by dementia can share their lived experience, knowledge, and skills to help plan, shape and influence the work we do. 

Here are some examples of the way we involved people with lived experience.

What are we looking for?

We are putting out an open call for nominations and want to hear about all the great involvement work taking place in the three nations and beyond. We are doing things a little differently this year, it’s an open submission and we are open to hearing from everyone.

The overarching criteria for successful nominations will be:   

  • Demonstrate how people with lived experience have been involved meaningfully. 
  • Evidence the impact of the involvement work on those affected by dementia.  
  • Highlight the learning that has taken place during the involvement process
