Promoting inclusivity with Dementia Choices

More than 50 million people worldwide live with dementia, so the need for dementia-inclusive spaces is essential. For people living with dementia, environment is vital to quality of life, but it can be hard to identify dementia-enabling furniture, appliances, fittings and fixtures.

The Dementia Choices endorsement helps care providers easily find dementia-enabling items and support people with dementia to live as independently as possible.
