My name is Gerda Van Tongerloo, I am from the Netherlands and a member of the European Working Group of People with Dementia (EWGPWD). As part of my work in my country I am involved in the new DREAm project. On Monday 10 February, the DREAm project kick-off took place in Utrecht, Netherlands. DREAm stands for Digital Resources supporting sleep of persons living with dEmentia while Alleviating caregivers' burden.
Brain Power is part of the project consortium, which consist of researchers and companies. Brain Power will bring in the perspective of people living with dementia. I am one of the researchers in the Brain Power group and am actively involved in the project as a researcher. The project aims to develop personalised strategies to support the sleep of community living people with dementia and their informal caregivers.
