Learn more about The Angela Project

The Angela Project aims to improve diagnosis and post-diagnostic support for younger people with dementia and their families/supporters and comprises the following two work-streams:

• Work-stream 1, which aims to provide guidance for accurate diagnosis. The objective of this work-stream is to develop a diagnostic guide for health professionals and clinicians.  This guidance will also address how the process of receiving a diagnosis is experienced by younger people with dementia and their supporters.

• Work-stream 2, which seeks to provide guidance for improving the services and support offered after diagnosis. The objective of this work-stream is to offer service providers and commissioners examples of best practice and the needs they meet across the care pathway.  Thus, this will support them in improving the post-diagnostic care and support offered to younger people with dementia and their families/supporters.
