As with many other events this year, the 15th UK Dementia Congress ran as a virtual event on 10th, 11th and 12th November attended by approximately 600 delegates. Organised by the Journal of Dementia Care, in partnership with the University of Worcester and the Alzheimer’s Society, there were over 100 different presentations including live webinars, panel discussions, live Q&A sessions, presentations and posters addressing topics ranging from arts, use of technology, risk-taking and stress and distress through to more reflective sessions on what has happened for the dementia care sector during this challenging year of the Covid-19 pandemic. Special interest streams also took place on Dementia Care in Acute Hospital Settings, in partnership with National Dementia Action Alliance, and End of Life Care for People Living with Dementia, in partnership with Dementia UK.
