This online course has been developed through extensive work with families and friends who are caring for someone with dementia. This course will take you through the fundamentals of dementia and the many parts of life that can be affected by it. There are six bite size modules. You can go through the lessons in any order; but to take the final quiz and earn your certificate you will need to have marked all lessons as ‘complete’.
Dementia Carers Count (DCC) is the only charity that offers essential, expert support to the 700,000 family members and friends in the UK who are looking after someone with dementia.
We provide free, life-changing support that families living with dementia so often find isn’t there for them. Our services - both face-to-face and online – give family carers the opportunity to learn about dementia, to connect with others in a similar situation and to find ways to improve and maintain their own wellbeing while navigating the highs and lows of caring for someone with dementia. Everything we do is developed together with family carers and is delivered by health and care professionals.
