More about Dementia United

Dementia United is the NHS Greater Manchester Integrated Care Partnership’s programme for dementia. They work together with people from across the Greater Manchester system, to co-design and deliver projects which deliver improvements to the quality and experience of care, support and wellbeing. One of our key priorities is to promote brain health and help prevent avoidable cases of dementia, helping to maximise wellbeing and time spent living independently.

Promoting prevention, supporting management

Led by proactive clinicians determined to see improvement in the way we prevent, diagnose and manage dementias, Dementia Academy supports healthcare professionals with the latest tools, resources and courses to do just that.
