Members of the public are being encouraged to help shape the future of dementia care in the county borough.

The Wrexham’s Community Listening Campaign is available for residents to take part in until December 31.

It takes around 10 minutes to complete and asks for your opinion on a number of things relating to dementia care, including:-

  • What does good dementia care look like?
  • What should be available to people living with dementia in this community?
  • What does community mean to you?
  • What are the things that will help people living with dementia to do the things they want to do in this community?

The campaign is part of a wider Wales Listens project being supported by Improvement Cymru and Citizens UK.

Cllr John Pritchard, Lead Member for Adult Social Care, said: “Dementia affects so many people and their families in so many different ways.

“Talking with others and sharing these experiences helps us to not only to develop the support that already exists, but importantly it lets us see what extra support is needed as well.

“Wrexham’s Community Listening Campaign will help us to find out these important things, and we want to try and gather as much information as we can to help improve dementia care.

“Your opinion matters, it really, really does.”
