Dementia has an estimated global prevalence of 35 million individuals (Alzheimer’s Disease International, 2009). In the UK 570,000 people live with dementia – a figure that will double over the next 30 years, reflecting global predictions (Alzheimer’s Disease International, 2009; Department of Health, 2009). With increasing demand and timescales of at least 5-10 years for the next possible disease modifying breakthrough, services are and have had to undergo change to cope with the increasing levels of need.
