UK need to invest in Dementia Villages & provide more carers in nursing homes

Closed 2,300 signatures

What the petition asks

Dementia affects millions. Both individuals and their families suffer. Nursing homes cannot provide full attentive 24/7 care, due to lack of staff & most are sedated to manage. More physical activity & brain stimulated activities are vital, to prevent rapid deterioration. The Netherlands succeeded!
