Dementia Australia Advocates were invited to participate in an Advocate drop-in session to discuss advocacy topics that they would like to focus on in future sessions.
More than 30 Advocates joined the drop-in session on Zoom to catch up with one another and share their ideas for future topics.
There were some great suggestions, such as:
- advocacy training
- social media training
- how to meet with politicians
- information on how to be involved in research opportunities and
- the use of technology to support people living with dementia to live as independently as possible (i.e. apps where reminders can be set for taking medication, storing photos/music).
We will use these suggestions to plan future Advocate drop-in sessions so keep an eye out for an email invitation to the next session in the coming weeks.
