Crown Paints Presents: Colour Design for Dementia
It is estimated that by 2025, over one million people will be living with dementia in the UK, an increasing figure. This interactive CPD examines common symptoms and how the built environment can exacerbate these or help those with dementia to live well. Additionally, this CPD will offer a greater understanding of how the implications of Dementia can help guide the design within a care setting.
