The All-Party Parliamentary Group on Dementia (APPG) is holding an inquiry into dementia and disability.

What is the APPG?

among parliamentarians and influence policy making in order to improve the lives of people with dementia and their carers.

The APPG on Dementia is currently holding an inquiry into dementia and disability. It is looking at what people think about dementia as a disability, what barriers people affected by dementia face in society and what can be done to make sure people with dementia are treated equally. The APPG launched a written call for evidence to gather people’s thoughts on this topic, which received a record number of responses.
