Research underpins all our work at Dementia Adventure. We are an evidence-led charity, making sure what we do benefits people living with dementia.
Through the publication and sharing of reports and films we inspire people to understand what is possible. We provide practical solutions focused on positive risk-taking to support people with dementia to benefit from nature based or outdoor activities.
Our vision is to expand the awareness, resources and availability of nature based, positive risk-taking activities for people living with dementia.
Our short to medium term aims are:
- To develop and refine our understanding of the costs and benefits associated with:
- The social value and impact of our charitable activities
