Delving into Dementia
In 2022, the new Dementia SET strategy was finalised. This strategy brings together key organisations from health, social care, and the voluntary sector, all working towards a shared goal: to make Southend, Essex, and Thurrock places where people can live well with dementia.
Over the past year, Healthwatch Thurrock has been actively engaging with residents of Thurrock to gather insights into dementia support and the lived experiences of individuals within the borough. Through this engagement, Healthwatch Thurrock aims to ensure that the voices of service users and people living with dementia are central to the ongoing development of high-quality dementia care in Thurrock.
Our goal is to make sure that the needs and experiences of those affected by dementia are consistently reflected in the delivery of best practice care and services across the borough.
