Isle of Wight health and social care system leaders launched the Isle of Wight Dementia Strategy in May 2022. It sets out a joint vision for improving dementia services and making the Island a place where people with a dementia can live safe and fulfilling lives. 

We are now starting work to refresh the Dementia Strategy, looking at what has already been achieved and where our continued efforts are needed to continue to drive improvements in dementia care and support for local people.

We need you to tell us about your experience of dementia services to understand what has worked well and what can be done better.

We will be hosting four in-person events across the island to facilitate open discussions and gather direct feedback. These events will provide an opportunity for attendees to engage with our team, share their stories, and contribute to the future direction of our Dementia Strategy.

Events will be held as an informal discussion providing people with the opportunity to give feedback. Arrive at any time between the hours stated above.

• 22 January 2025, 10am to 1pm, The Broadway Centre, Sandown
• 30 January 2025, 1pm to 4pm, The Riverside Centre, Newport
• 05 February 2025, 1pm to 4pm, Parklands Café, Cowes

The Isle of Wight Council public consultation gives Islanders the opportunity to have their say on how the Council should spend its money next year.

The annual budget consultation is seeking feedback from all Island residents about the priorities they want to see in the coming year.

These views will help shape the draft budget for the 2025/26 financial year.

Residents are encouraged to complete the consultation survey and have their say by Sunday 26 January 2025.
