Policies, procedures and strategies directory - Stoke-on-Trent joint dementia strategy

In Stoke-on-Trent, we have been working with our partners to improve services and support for people living with dementia and their carers. As a result there has been great improvement in our diagnosis rates and the services available to support people with dementia and their carers.

There is still much to be done. The number of people affected by dementia is increasing significantly, yet the condition still carries a great deal of stigma and fear. This can often prevent people from seeking the support they need and lead to them becoming disconnected from their communities.

With access to the right support, treatment and care people can live well with dementia. This is the message that we want to spread loud and clear throughout the city.

This dementia strategy is jointly presented by Stoke-on-Trent City Council and Stoke-on-Trent Clinical Commissioning Group. It is underpinned by the National Dementia Strategy and sets out the strategic direction for dementia services for people living in Stoke-on-Trent up to 2024. It will be used to inform and determine our commissioning, service planning and development for each year for the life of the strategy. 

The Stoke-on-Trent and North Staffordshire Dementia Steering Group will oversee the implementation of the national and local dementia strategies, including this strategy.
