The Virtual Dementia Tour is the only scientifically and medically proven method of giving a person with a healthy brain the experience of what dementia might be like. Invented over 23 years ago in America, the virtual Dementia Tour has been experienced by over 5 million people in 22 countries. The Virtual Dementia Tour has been available in the Uk for over 6 years and over 1 million people have participated in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Some of the organisation that have accessed this training are care providers, NHS trusts, Councils , Fire Services, Police, Prisons, Universities and many more. This inspirational training is changing the lives of so many including the amazing people that support people with dementia.
When a person that has dementia has finally been diagnosed, we must give the support team around them a true understanding of what they are experiencing and what they experience during their future dementia journey. The Virtual Dementia Tour is a vital bridge to entering their world, it is unlike any training course available and challenges the misconceptions surrounding dementia.
The Virtual Dementia Tour is available for your staff, families and anyone that comes in to direct or indirect contact with people living with dementia.
