Thanks to our @dementiacommunity.bsky.social for a successful and memorable conference, where ACP-UK's Dr Carolien Lamers took part. #UKDC2025
Thank you to everyone who helped make Day 2 of #UKDC2025 such a good one. Delegates, speakers, partners, sponsors, lived experience supporters and exhibitors all brought so much to the day. Safe travels home.

What was the moment you will remember most?

Thanks to everyone who joined ACP-UK's Psychology of Ageing Advisory Group, including network lead Dr Carolien Lamers, who presented in two sessions at the successful #UKDC2025, hosted by Dementia Community.
“Behavioural expressions of need” is the preferred term put forward by the Advisory Group for the Psychology of Ageing Network to replace phrases like “behaviour that challenges” and BPSD. This was highlighted by psychologists at the end of Parallel Session 6.1. Worth keeping in mind going forward.
