About the role

This is an exciting opportunity for a motivated talented individual as a Research Assistant for the national Dementia Network EMPOWER - Empowering a Meaningful Life for All. The Network brings together strengths in dementia care, social care, primary care and palliative care, with lived experts and communities to realise sustained change to support and empower equalities in care for people living and dying with dementia, and their families.

You will support development and delivery of the public engagement workshops, Policy Lab and 'sand-pit' events for small research project funding to innovate dementia care and engage the public and policy makers to realise and sustain change.
