Free Interactive Training at the Radar Centre Belfast Harbour Estate THURS 25th OCTOBER 2018 9.30am – 12noon Dementia Friendly East Belfast has developed an interactive training event. The RADAR Centre is a warehouse in Belfast Harbour Estate with mocked- up buildings, houses, a row of shops, a bank, a courthouse, a bus and train, a street and a park. Everything is indoors. The emphasis of the training is simple: small changes can make a big difference. The training session lasts 2.5 hours and comprises: • An introduction to dementia • Visits to: a house (living room, kitchen, bathroom); a shop; a bus; a library; a bank. • At each location a trainer explains how to make them more dementia friendly. • TRAINING IS FREE! But bookings must be confirmed with names attending. • Complementary tea and coffee. • All details and venue info is given on booking. People are brought to each location in groups, with five groups moving between locations at the same time. Up to 100 can be trained at a time. The training is delivered by the Dementia Friendly East Belfast campaign - an umbrella body that includes Alzheimer’s Society, Dementia NI, businesses, church groups and people living with dementia. It is supported by Belfast Health and Social Care Trust and this training is funded by the Public Health Agency.
