Scotland's first dementia strategy is on the way, stepping up the drive towards better care for people living with dementia. Over the summer a wide-ranging consultation will gather the views of people with dementia and all those involved in their care about what should be included in the strategy.
Recommendations from a specialist Dementia Forum - including the Mental Welfare Commission, Alzheimer Scotland, the Care Commission and Age Concern & Help the Aged - will also help shape the strategy, which will be published before the end of the year.
