About this network
London ADASS works closely with the Dementia Commissioners Network, comprised of dementia leads in Local Authorities, Clinical Commissioning Groups and NHS England.
They provide support support with:
- Evaluating a wide range of Memory Service Provisions across London
- Exploring the use of NICE guidance within commissioning cycle
- Promoting Dementia Action Alliances
- Sharing best practice and provide real life examples of innovative dementia commissioning where services have been redesigned.
- Supporting a pathway approach to commissioning across both health and social care.
