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. 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.   

We won't be holding a webinar in August as the group will be taking a well-deserved summer break! But watch this space for information on our next webinar later in the year.

What it means to be part of the 3 Nations Dementia Working Group

Our last webinar focused on what it means to be part of this group. Being a member offers a powerful sense of purpose and community for people living with dementia across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. 

The group is led by individuals with lived experience, which means members are not just participants — they are leaders, advocates, and changemakers. This creates a unique space where voices are not only heard but actively sought out by policymakers, researchers, and service providers who want to understand what truly matters to those living with dementia. 

Hear directly from our members who shared their personal experience of how being a part of this group benefits them.
