The Carers of West Lothian (CoWL) & Older People Active Lives (OPAL) have secured funding for a new project, "Time & Space", to support people with dementia and their carers.

Their vision is that people affected by dementia in West Lothian will be able to access support as and when they need to.  At this early stage of the project, they are looking for some feedback on what type of support would provide you with a more positive experience on your dementia journey.
