Becoming a Dementia Friend


To become a Dementia Friend, you will watch an overview video that will provide you with information about dementia, how to recognize the signs of dementia and simple actions you can take to be a Dementia Friend and to personally contribute to making your community dementia friendly.

Once you have watched the overview video in its entirety, you will be prompted to select one of the video shorts that is most relevant to your role in the community.  In order to complete the Dementia Friends session, you need to watch at least one of these video shorts. We encourage you to watch several! Once you have viewed the overview and at least one of the video shorts you will be able to register as a Dementia Friend.
