Sprowston Dementia Friendly Community is a local initiative working with Broadland Dementia Action Alliance. We are a group of local people with a passion for Sprowston and an interest in Dementia. Our aim is to raise awareness of dementia, and to allow people living with dementia or memory problems within our community to feel safe, supported and valued. Local Businesses and community groups will be invited to attend/hold Dementia Awareness and Information sessions. We have also set up and will continue to hold the Sprowston Community Dementia Cafe which offers a friendly meeting place for families and carers who are living with dementia or memory problems. During the sessions there will be a chance for carers to meet and make new friends, we will offer occasional speakers and professional advice as well as coffee and biscuits and other activities! No booking needed just turn up, wheelchair friendly and free car parking. If you are a business, local organisation such a youth group, WI, public house or restaurant, school etc and would like to hold a Dementia awareness session or an individual who would just like to know more then please message us for more information. We would also be pleased to offer any advice on making your premises more Dementia Friendly.

I was pleased to meet with Stephen Kinnock today to discuss the support available in Norfolk for people with dementia and their families and carers. This follows my visits and discussions with constituents and local groups including Sprowston Dementia Friendly Community and Community Dementia Cafe. The Minister told me that the Government is developing the first ever Modern Service Framework for Frailty and Dementia to deliver rapid and significant improvements in quality of care and productivity. This will also help tackle inequality and will set national standards for dementia care. I'll keep pushing for action so people get the support they need.

I also took the chance to discuss what can be done to get the new Dental School at UEA running as soon as possible.
