What Are These Reports?

The role of the Leadership and Advisory Group is to engage with the Dementia Mate Wareware Network and provide strategic advice to Government on implementing the Dementia Mate Wareware Action Plan. These reports are produced by the Leadership Group following Network engagement and collaboration on areas of the Action Plan that the government has signalled as priorities.

Considering Dementia Mate Wareware in the Future of Ageing Well

This submission to the Future of Ageing Well Funding and Service Models Review brought together all these elements: the Dementia Action Plan, the Leadership Group, the Network, and the New Zealand Dementia Foundation. We particularly note the contribution of an online Network hui, hosted by over 100 participants.

We have a simple message. Dementia is not normal ageing. If dementia awareness is not “baked in” to the core goals and principles of our funding and service models, then services will be poorly aligned with the needs of people living with dementia mate wareware.
