Southwark Dementia Action Alliance
What is Southwark DAA?
Southwark Dementia Action Alliance is a means through which all types of organisations and individuals can make a contribution to improve the lives of people with dementia and their families, whether they live, work or enjoy the rich leisure , businesses, cultural or artistic resources in the borough.
Southwark Dementia Action Alliance (DAA) exists as a vehicle for organisations and individuals to work together to make Southwark a dementia friendly community, where people living with dementia have the support they need to live their life to the full and remain a valued part of our community. We have a steering group which co-ordinates the work of the DAA and looks for opportunities to develop partnerships and initiatives in Southwark to further this aim.
We are made up of a wide range of organisations large and small, and we welcome members from local business, faith based organisations, leisure, arts, housing and statutory and voluntary sector health and care agencies.
