Last night, thinkpublic and Alzheimer100 were highly commended for the People’s Voice Award at the launch of the DOTT07 (Designs Of The Time) Festival in Newcastle Gateshead. Our work with people with Dementia in the North East of England over the past year has resulted in four projects, including the Dementia Signposting Service and designs for a safe wandering garden.
All of the Alzheimer100 work is presented in the Dott 07 festival on the Quayside. Other exciting projects included Urban Farming, which won the Creative Community Award, and Low Carb Lane which looked at design solutions to reducing carbon emissions.
