West Wales Engagement - Dementia Awareness, Theatr Ffwrnes, Llanelli

Dementia Friendly Swansea invited Llais to attend their awareness training sessions at Theatr Ffwrness in order to raise the profile of Llais and to listen to carers' experiences within the health and social care sector.

Two sessions ran – one in the morning and one in the afternoon with 19 people attending in the morning and 18 in the afternoon. Most of the attendees were Hywel Dda or council staff with a few carers. These staff included social workers, physiotherapies, nurses and community connectors. I gave a short presentation to both groups and had the chance to promote Llais to staff that see clients/ patients daily.
