Rik shares his experiences of user-centred design for ‘Dementia Connect’ — a service to improve access to advice and support for anyone worried about, living with or affected by these progressive-terminal brain diseases.

If you are interested in inclusive design and working with vulnerable audiences then you will get a lot from this!
