Dementia Awareness

At Clifford Johnston & Co we are very much aware of the ageing population and the issue of dementia in our society.  Christopher Furbey, Philip Walsh, Noreen Doherty and Shane Flannery have recently undertaken some training in relation to dementia and have become “dementia friends”.

The training was helpful to enable a deeper understanding about dementia and how to assist those who live with dementia.  The training was also helpful to understand that people do live with dementia as opposed to suffer from dementia.  The training was useful to understand how making simple changes to the office can assist those who live with dementia and make the office and environment more dementia friendly.

The training is in the wider context of the Heatons becoming a dementia friendly area.  This is a positive step forward to assisting and enabling those who do live with dementia.

If you have any interest in relation to dementia and how it can affect you and your family then you can contact Christopher Furbey on 0161 975 1908 or email c.furbey@cj-law.co.uk or Shane Flannery on 0161 696 2410 or email shane.flannery@cj-law.co.uk.
