A note before you apply

Due to the high level of interest in joining our Lived Experience Involvement Group, we are currently only seeking applications from people living with a diagnosis of dementia.

This lived experience is particularly important at the current time to ensure we have a good balance of voices influencing the work we do.

If you are affected by dementia in another way, such as being a current or former carer, we are very grateful for your interest. We expect to open applications more widely again in the future, so please keep an eye on this webpage for updates.
