Alzheimer Scotland Partnership
Participants:
750+ members of staff have become dementia friends. Aside from this, there will be a considerable number of people living with dementia who have benefitted.
Purpose:
We believe that all Scottish Racecourses should be accessible to all and commit to making the experience as easy and as enjoyable as possible especially to those who are new to the sport because they have felt excluded. This partnership utilises the established, positive links between Scottish Racing and William Hill to become an accessible and familiar route, for people living with Dementia from shop to racecourse.
