Decision details

The Dementia Strategy, as set out at Appendix 'A', provides the strategic direction for Lancashire County Council in supporting people with dementia and their carers and families.  It aims to facilitate the development of a Dementia Friendly Lancashire which will support prevention, awareness, early diagnosis and support for people with dementia in partnership with other organisations.

We want to make a positive difference to the lives of people living with dementia and their carers, so they can be as independent as possible, for as long as possible, and feel understood and included, so they can confidently contribute to community life.

This is deemed to be a Key Decision and the provisions of Standing Order No. 25 have been complied with.

The Cabinet approved the recommendation as set out in the report.
