This week is #DementiaActionWeek and here at Social Sense we wanted to spread the message that there is life after diagnosis, there are #GreaterMomentsAhead.

Social Sense and Hitch were asked to develop a “Lived Experience Barometer” to measure in real time the experience of people affected by dementia to inform and enable improvements required locally and across Greater Manchester.
Our ambition is to bring together all the experiences impacting people affected by dementia together in one place, from transport and shopping experiences, to interactions with carers and other professionals.
Our aim is to create something that focusses not on the dementia, but the person and those around them.
We want to capture everything that is positive, for example friendships and achievements alongside thoughts, feelings and concerns and make sure that local activities are more visible, accessible and friendly.
