This week Megan O'Hare interviews Emma Harding and Emilie Brotherhood, PhD students working on the Rare Dementia Support Impact study - a £3.5 million, five-year, multi-site collaboration research study into the value of multicomponent support groups for people living with or supporting someone with a rare form of dementia. They will discuss the 5 work packages involved but also the translation of all their work into other forms of dementia and the potential impact this could have on policy, particularly around financial support. More information on Rare Dementias and support can be found at http://www.raredementiasupport.org/ You can find out more about our panellists, and their work on our website www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk.

Collaborations and Qualitative Research in Dementia
September 25, 2019
•29m
What's possible when a group of creative, motivated, self-driven qualitative researchers find each other? Only time will tell, but if the first meeting of this group is anything to go by, you can expect some quality outputs, which add real value to helping people living with dementia. Dr Jemima Dooley (University of Bristol), Dr Sarah Griffiths, (University of Plymouth) and Anna Volkmer (University College London) work in the field of language and communications, an area which can be particularly challenging for people living with dementia. After becoming aware of each others work through social media, conferences and publications; they decided to come together to collaborate and invited others to join. Adam Smith joined the group's inaugural meeting, and in this podcast he talks with Jemima and Sarah to understand how the meeting came about, what they hope to achieve and what comes next. We hope that by sharing this story, we can encourage others across the UK and the rest of the world to come together to and make a breakthroughs possible (to quote great the ARUK strapline). A blog written by Anna Volkmer, sharing her take on the meeting is available here: https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/guest-blog-meeting-of-minds-qualitative-research-in-dementia/ A transcript of this podcast is also available on our website at https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/podcast-collaborations-and-qualitative-research-in-dementia/ _________________________ If you would like to share your own experiences or discuss your research in a blog or on a podcast, drop us a line to adam.smith@nihr.ac.uk or find us on twitter @dem_researcher _________________________ Join Dementia Research a topic of a previous podcast has been selected as a Top 100 innovation created by University College London.
