Making Shared Care a Reality: Outcomes & Recommendations for Better Dementia Care

Join us for this impactful 90-minute webinar exploring the findings and recommendations from our landmark report Making Shared Care a Reality.
This event brings together carers, care home professionals, policy makers, and carer organisations to examine how we can build truly inclusive care environments where carers remain respected, supported partners in the lives of people with dementia—before and after the move into residential care.

Attendees will gain insights from carers’ lived experiences, explore evidence-based recommendations, and hear directly from contributors to the report. The panel will include carers, care staff, and sector leaders who are already working to embed shared care approaches in everyday practice.

This is a vital opportunity to understand what shared care means in real terms, why it matters, and how it can be implemented to improve wellbeing, trust, and continuity for everyone involved. Whether you're a carer, professional, or advocate for better dementia care, this session will provide practical guidance, inspiration, and a space for open dialogue.

Let’s work together to make shared care the standard—not the exception.

Carers Coffee Morning

Join us on Wednesday mornings for a relaxed chat with other members of tide. Our coffee morning groups friendly, informal and attended by current carers, carers of those who are in residential care and former carers so are open to all.

Chat and change is a chance for you to meet and talk with other carers. Share your experiences and ease your concerns in a pressure-free supportive environment of other people who know what you are going through. The best way to start a positive change is to voice your thoughts & opinions. So come, listen and let's make a better future for carers together.

We use zoom for this and can help you get set up and started if this is new to you.

“Caring is a bit like the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, the pieces symbolize the challenges that carers face on a daily basis, some larger and awkward, while others are corner pieces that fit perfectly. tide is the physical building together of the jigsaw, interlocking all the disconnected pieces, when assembled produce a complete picture"
