The Department has established a new time-limited Stakeholder Advisory Group to help inform the next phase of work on dementia, post the current Prime Minister’s Challenge on Dementia, which superseded the National Dementia Strategy and which is due to end in March 2015.

The Advisory Group is providing advice to help inform the Department’s work to shape the future direction of domestic dementia policy to 2020. The group met for the first time on 17 October to discuss their draft terms of reference for the proposed work programme and timeline.

Once finalised the terms of reference for the group and other details including the envisaged timeline for the work will be published on the Department of Health’s Prime Ministers Challenge website.
