This project is funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund: The National Lottery Heritage Fund is the largest funder for the UK’s heritage. Using money raised by National Lottery players, The National Lottery Heritage Fund supports projects that connect people and communities with the UK’s heritage. Our project on ‘Working towards creating dementia-friendly parks, outside spaces and nature reserves’ is made possible with The National Lottery Heritage Fund. Thanks to National Lottery players, we will be able to develop a guide and environmental self-assessment tool to improve access to outside spaces for people affected by dementia.
Thanks to National Lottery players
