Read a final report of work to support self management for people throughout their journey with dementia.
Supported by the Self Management Fund in 2019, Journeying through Dementia is an occupation-based intervention that enables people at an earlier point in their dementia journey to engage in meaningful activities, maintain community connectedness and supports independence and wellbeing following a diagnosis.
The project combines self management and group based peer support to improve quality of life. It provides evidence-based occupational therapy for participants and aims to reach people early in their dementia journey to maximise benefit, providing rehabilitation and self management strategies for people living with dementia, supporting them to live as independently as possible, reducing the demand on health and social care services.
