The Waverley Abbey Insight Series is based on our proven one-day seminars held at Waverley Abbey House to give insight into key issues with which many people struggle today.

In Insight into Dementia, Rosemary Hurtley explains what it is like to have dementia, examining its impact, outlining options and strategies for care – and much more.

Suggested activities, reflections and prayers at the end of each chapter, along with poetry and biblical references throughout, help to aid reflection and will strengthen emotions and faith whilst offering hope to those with dementia and their carers.

"… a practical, informative text reflecting contemporary knowledge and approaches to dementia care. It distinguishes itself … by its Christian spiritual context."– Clive Evers, Alzheimer's Society
