Memory clinic mailing
Memory Clinic Mailing – the best way to spread awareness about Join Dementia Research
Project Description
Fylde Coast Memory Assessment Service wrote to everyone who received a diagnosis within the past 12 months to offer them the opportunity to engage in dementia research by registering on Join Dementia Research as part of a new initiative piloted by Fylde and Wyre Coast Clinical Commissioning Group.
There was a 5% uptake, with more people registering on Join Dementia Research during the first 3 months following the initiative compared to the number who registered within the past year.
- Ensure you are working within the guidelines and principles of general data protection regulations
- Include a registration form with the letter
- Focus on one initiative that is likely to have the biggest impact
- If possible, offer the name, number, and availability of a local Join Dementia Research champion who can be contacted if people have any questions or queries about Join Dementia Research and the registration process
Yvette Griffin and Laura Barnes led this initiative at Fylde Coast Memory Assessment Service
