Our scoping review on dementia, travel & tourism found just 13 studies 🧳

People with dementia want to travel but face barriers:
🚉 Inaccessible transport & restrooms
🏛️ Venues worry about costs & resourcing
ℹ️ Low dementia awareness

Tourism can be inclusive but we need action! doi.org/10.1177/1471...
