Brain Health & Dementia
This work is led by Dr Josie Reynolds.
Our work in this areas focuses on:
co-producing inclusive research into brain health and dementia
designing more culturally relevant and competent services to address the brain health and dementia needs of culturally diverse communities
tackling structural racism which is currently built into health services.
Work to date includes the PMIMS Study and brain health priority setting with the Chinese community. We are also partnering with Cultural Appropriate Resources to refine and pilot reminiscent therapy interventions tailored to people with dementia from Caribbean communities. Future work includes brain health priority setting with Israac Somali Community Association in collaboration with Dr Becky Field.
