Celebrating Best Practice, Continuing Professional Development
Care Talk Magazine and the Alzheimer’s & Dementia Show have joined forces to launch the Inaugural Dementia Care Awards.
In a landmark move for the social care sector, Care Talk Magazine has announced a pioneering partnership with the Alzheimer’s & Dementia Show, set to showcase the first-ever Care Talk Dementia Awards 2024.
The announcement comes on the heels of Care Talk’s recent launch of the brand-new Dementia Care Awards. The awards will kick off the night before the Alzheimer’s & Dementia Show at the prestigious Royal Lancaster Hotel in London, promising an evening dedicated to recognising the unsung heroes of dementia care.
Lisa Carr, Editor of Care Talk Magazine, spoke of the necessity of the awards, “With an increasing number of dementia-focused entries at the Great British Care Awards, it became clear that there was a wealth of contributions that deserved special recognition. Launching the Dementia Care Awards was our answer to honour this dedication comprehensively.”
The awards have garnered the support of influential organisations such as Care England, United for all Ages, the Downs Syndrome Association, Newman University, and the Outstanding Society, highlighting the event’s significance in the healthcare community.
The Alzheimer’s & Dementia Show has expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration, which aligns with their mission to provide a platform for advancements in dementia care.
Scheduled to be held on the 14-15th of June 2024 at ExCel London, the Alzheimer’s & Dementia Show will immediately follow the awards ceremony, creating a two-day event focused on education, innovation, and appreciation within the field.
This partnership not only sets the stage for a grand celebration of those making a difference in the lives of individuals with dementia but also establishes a new standard for recognition in the sector. The Dementia Care Awards promise to shine a light on the extraordinary efforts of caregivers and organisations, giving them the acknowledgment they richly deserve.
The Alzheimer’s & Dementia Show had this to say about the partnership: “Partnering with Care Talk Magazine to present the Dementia Care Awards is a milestone moment for us at the Alzheimer’s & Dementia Show. It embodies our shared commitment to acknowledging the remarkable efforts of those within the dementia care community. These awards will shine a spotlight on the outstanding contributions of caregivers and professionals who go above and beyond in their daily roles. It’s a celebration of the innovation and compassion that drive dementia care forward. We’re honoured to be a part of this inaugural event and look forward to making it a highlight of our annual show.”
