SHOW PREVIEW
Care & Dementia Show 2015 Preview
The Care & Dementia show is coming to Birmingham NEC on the 3rd and 4th November, offering industry professionals the chance to enjoy two simultaneous, free conference programmes.
Care Show 2015, organised by UBM, is set to partner with the University of Stirling’s Dementia Services Development Centre (DSDC) to hold the International Dementia Conference alongside the Care Show this November.
The collaborative event is the first of its kind in the UK bringing together key industry stakeholders to offer education and training to attendees, as well as a platform for suppliers to show off their latest products and services.
The two conference programmes, which are free of charge, will run at the same time and feature a range of leading speakers to address the issues facing those in the care industry.
What to Expect The Keynote Seminar Theatre will host a range of CPD accredited sessions, lead by speakers from the CQC, National Care Association and Alzheimer’s Society, covering topics including Integrated Care, Market Trends and Opportunities, Winning Business in the Care Sector, as well as Recruitment, Retention and Reward.
The event’s Dementia Care Seminar Theatre will feature presentations from the University of Stirling’s Dementia Services Development Centre (DSDC) covering thought- provoking topics around the challenges of dementia. Speakers are set to include DSDC Director, Professor June Andrews and Head of Learning and Development, Shirley Law.

“We are delighted to be able to introduce further innovative dementia care solutions and inspiration to Care & Dementia Show in 2015. We are delighted to be working with the DSDC in facilitating the content within our Dementia Care Seminar Theatre and look forward to welcoming many visitors to what is looking to be a very interesting and thought-provoking event.”
“The event will comprise over 250 exhibitors, making it the largest of its kind; covering sectors including technology, health and safety, uniforms and utilities through to bathing, furniture and professional services.”
Chris added: “Dementia costs our health and social care systems more than cancer, heart disease and stroke put together. This is the right time to refocus our successful Care Show exhibition to share best practice from some of the world’s dementia thought-leaders: we are honoured to be working with DSDC as the world renowned centre of excellence dedicated to improving the lives of people with dementia, as part of their dedicated ‘Dementia Festival of Ideas’ during 2015 - their 25th anniversary year.”
The International Dementia Conference boasts speakers such as Professor Timothy Kwok from the Chinese University of Hong Kong and Professor June Andrews.
Professor June Andrews of the DSDC says: “DSDC has an enviable reputation as a world class centre for sharing ideas and research about what makes a difference in care of people with dementia. Through the International Dementia Conference and this powerful partnership with the Care Show, we are creating an unparalleled opportunity to challenge assumptions about dementia care, as well as explore innovations. International headline speakers will emphasise the importance of creativity, technology and focusing on what really makes a difference.”
