Part of 2. 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 2:10 pm on 6 June 2017.
First Minister, a year-long study by the Seale-Hayne Educational Trust and the Farming Community Network has noted a number of concerns about the impact of dementia in rural areas that we need to tackle, including a lack of awareness of the support available in rural areas, as well as the difficulty in accessing support services. So, in light of those concerns, what additional work is the Welsh Government doing to raise awareness of the support available for those living in more rural, isolated communities, and can you also tell us one specific measure that your Government has put in place over the last 12 months to assist people in rural communities who have dementia?
