We work wih partner organisations such as the Safeguarding Board, NHS, Social Services, Mental Health, Police, Fire service, statutory and voluntary support agencies. All of our staff are either Dementia friends or Champions. Our service goes beyond the work required to de-clutter the home by also delivering after care and support for our clients so that they do not fall back into chaos. I am the current Chairman of the Pan essex dementia action alliance and can see the value in working in partnership with organisations where there is an identified crossover of service provision. A number of the clients we are currently engaged with are living with dementia, so some of our assistuve technology aids will help alleviate their frustrations, enabling them to live well in their own homes, engaging with relatives and friends whilst supporting their safety.
