What I love about my job

Jane is very much a people person; through her work she wants to make a difference to people’s lives. In her education role she will help make Jersey a dementia friendly Island. By teaching people from all walks of life, both young and old about dementia, the impact of the disease, how to engage with people with dementia and how people with dementia can live well. “The work the charity does is incredible and far reaching.
