This workshop is open to Health and Social Care Professionals, Researchers and Educationalists. This workshop seeks to offer participants the opportunity to learn about recent European research and practice development in this emerging field and consider the ways in which this research can be applied to develop practice with children and young people and their families where they are affected by dementia. Furthermore, it seeks to identify future research agendas and create opportunities to build networks for those interested in developing this body of knowledge and practice.
