- 2. Dementia is now the UK’s biggest killer The true scale of dementia One in three people born today will develop dementia Every three minutes, someone in the UK develops dementia By 2021, one million people will be living with dementia in the UK Every year, dementia costs the UK £26.3 billion – nearly twice that of cancer

- Alzheimer’s Society is one of the largest UK funders of dementia research and innovation. Increased spending 3-fold over the last 5 years. Currently we are spending £10million a year on research and innovation. Our funding is for all types of dementia, not just Alzheimer’s disease We are unique as we fund research and innovation all the way from risk reduction and prevention through to care for people in the later stages of dementia. We have funded a lot of research and supported the innovation of new products for care homes..
- Fund diverse range of research in care homes to understand what best practice looks like and how we can implement it. Examples of research currently funding: - understanding experiences of eating and drinking - improving night time care and reducing hypnotic drug use - exploring how family carers can continue compassion in care homes - improving communication with a new sound amplification product as an alternative to hearing aids. Previously funded a lot of research to support care home staff to manage behavioural symptoms without the need for antipsychotic drugs. To get involved in research, sign up to the ENRICH network or get in contact with your local university (enrich.nihr.ac.uk)
- Recently funded three new grants to try and enable care homes to get more closely involved in research. What typically happens now is researchers decide the agenda for research and then find a care home to collect the data – care homes often don’t see the findings for the research they’ve been involved in. Instead we want research driven by the needs of care home staff. Research projects designed together, joint understanding and ownership of findings. Care home staff bring valuable knowledge and expertise – they should also be paid for their time to be involved in research Ensure research is relevant and reliable We encourage care home managers to initiative these conversations with researcher..
- Innovation sprint First innovation sprint challenge – how we can better support care home staff when it comes to sex and intimacy needs of residents living with dementia? Went through 4 stages of innovation cycle – Learn, investigate, find & experiment Identified challenges through interviews with staff and residents in care home. Prototyped 2 solutions – presented to Dragons den panel and taken to 6 care homes for further development. Both solutions ended up merging to create lift the lid workshop. Workshop has 3 modules – challenging perceptions, co-creating values & embedding new culture. Can be run as a 2-3hr long session or broken into 3 parts lasting 30-45 mins. Everything you need to facilitate is in the box. By using the new policy, your team with feel confident in demonstrating holistic person centred care and best practice within CCG key lines of enquiry related to relationships, equality and diversity. Order your own lift the lid through Alzheimer’s Society website. Nominated for international service design award.
- Accelerator programme One year partnerships to develop people’s ideas (products or services) designed for people affected by dementia. £1000,000 to help build and test products. One example is Jelly drops - sweets containing 90% water that can keep people with dementia hydrated. Developed by Lewis Hornby after his grandmother was hospitalised with dehydration and inspired by her love for sweets. Suitable for use with care homes. Look out for jelly drops - should be ready to launch early next year
- Innovation hub If you have challenges that you think need addressing, you can submit them through our innovation hub Going live on 8th October We need your help to identify what the challenges are so that our expert team can come up with solutions.
