3 Nations Dementia Working Group

The 3 Nations Dementia Working Group (3NDWG) are a friendly group of people diagnosed with dementia who want to make a difference whilst we still can.

Who are we?

We are a small group with big ambitions and we hope to do the following:

  • Bring the lived experience as experts with our personal knowledge of dementia that people value whether in a professional or non-professional capacity. As such our aim is to become the ‘go to’ group within the three nations (of England, Northern Ireland and Wales) for anyone seeking input from people with dementia.
  • Continue to contribute to society, to give value, advice and information where required and requested.
  • Help each other through mutual support, friendship and understanding.
  • Help all those affected by dementia. We understand what you are dealing with.
  • Help those who are trying to help us (such as policy makers, service providers, academics, researchers, businesses).

Hear from members of 3NDWG

The 3NDWG are hosting monthly webinars, designed and delivered, by people living with dementia. 

The next webinar will be on Tuesday 18 February 2025 from 11am to 12pm.

Delay in social care review by UK Government

This webinar will explore the UK government's decision to delay the review and reform of social care until 2028, particularly its impact on people living with dementia and their families.

We will discuss the implications of this delay, focusing on the immediate challenges faced by those affected by dementia, as well as the potential long-term consequences for dementia care services.

Attendees will have the opportunity to hear from experts, share personal experiences, and explore potential solutions and actions that can be taken while awaiting reform. 

This session aims to raise awareness and foster discussion on how to address the growing need for effective dementia care services in the absence of immediate government intervention.
