New Housing LIN guest blog, by Yasmeen Hussein, Policy Executive at Foundations, reflects on how policymakers, academics and services providers encourage people to embrace dementia-readiness.

Yasmeen shares how the sector has a duty to lead, teach and guide society to the standards recommended, outlining what these standards look like and how some are being widely neglected.

She also notes how designers and providers of dementia services should continue to raise, recommend and encourage awareness while also making a coordinated and collaborative effort to follow through on promises, including giving substance to the recommendations from Lord Best's recent APPG Inquiry report.
