DeNPRU Exeter is a Policy Research Unit in Dementia and Neurodegeneration based at the University of Exeter. This webinar will share learning from DeNPRU Exeter's policy research project on reducing inequalities for minority ethnic communities living with dementia, Parkinson's disease, motor neurone disease or Huntington's disease.
The United Kingdom is composed of diverse range of ethnic and cultural groups. However, people from minority ethnic communities living with dementia or other neurodegenerative conditions often face significant inequalities in accessing healthcare. This can result in delayed diagnoses, poorer health outcomes and a reduced quality of life.
This project has:
identified and examined community campaigns aimed at raising awareness and/or reducing stigma around neurodegenerative conditions in minority ethnic populations.
reviewed existing research on the barriers and facilitators influencing access to care and support for people from minority ethnic communities.
learned from people with lived or professional experience about raising awareness of neurodegenerative conditions and addressing barriers to accessing services.
Join the DeNPRU Exeter Reducing Ethnic Inequalities Project Team to hear about the findings.
Deputy Director of DeNPRU, Professor Jan Oyebode
Research Fellow, Dr Maria Caulfield
