The North Sea Dementia Group held its annual meeting in Stuttgart (Germany) from 10 to 12 April. Several important topics were addressed such as living well with dementia (evidence and theory), improving dementia care in differing contexts, people with dementia in the community and exploring planning, action and prevention. On the last day of the meeting, the Robert Bosch Stiftung (RBS), which was supporting the event, organised three excursions and Brigitte Stähle from the RBS hosted a session on its dementia-related activities. Dianne Gove, Director for Projects, took part in the guided tour of the Robert Bosch Hospital which showcased the work of the department for geriatric medicine and geriatric rehabilitation. She then, on behalf of Alzheimer Europe’s expert working group on intercultural care and support, presented the report on intercultural care and support for people with dementia from minority ethnic groups, which is now available in English, French and German. This report received funding from the European Union’s Health Programme (2014-2020) and from the Robert Bosch Stiftung.
