Virtual Dementia Tour

As part of West Fest 2025, Home Instead SUR Group is proud to bring the Virtual Dementia Tour to the Celebrating Connections Community Day, hosted by the University of Glasgow’s School of Health & Wellbeing.

This free, immersive experience offers a rare opportunity to step into the world of someone living with dementia. Designed by Training 2 CARE, the 15-minute tour helps build empathy, understanding and awareness, whether you’re a family carer, professional, or simply curious.

With 1 in 3 people in the UK expected to die from dementia-related illnesses, now is the time to take action, deepen understanding, and support one another.

“By experiencing first-hand the realities of dementia, we believe we can inspire greater compassion and more effective support.” – Lesley Ballingall, Managing Director, Home Instead SUR Group

🧠 Alongside the tour, enjoy a variety of wellbeing activities, information stands, and local services - all aimed at celebrating community and connection across the lifespan.

Open to all – drop in and discover how small insights can make a big difference.
