In the past few weeks we\u2019ve had two new articles published.<\/p>\n
- \n
- Bray, J. and Payne-Lunn, S. (2026) Worcester Life Stories, Internet Archaeology 73. https:\/\/intarch.ac.uk\/journal\/issue73\/8\/<\/a> \u2013 This article came from our Worcester Life Stories project where we evaluated two new online platforms aiming to encourage people to engage with heritage-based resources. You can find out more about the project in a previous blog post<\/a>.<\/li>\n
- Jacobson-Wright, N. & Beeson, S. (2026) Namaste Care Education Project \u2013 A case study for co-production. Journal of Dementia Care, 34(3), 30-33 \u2013 This article looks at our Namaste Care course and how we involved people with lived experience of dementia in its development. We can\u2019t share the article directly, but you can find out more via the Dementia Community website<\/a>. We\u2019re still finalising dates and details, but we\u2019re hoping to run another Namaste Care course in August\/September so if you are interested in finding out more please contact us at dementia@worc.ac.uk<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
We\u2019ve also got several article in various stages of writing\/submission\/review, so it might not be too long before we have further articles to share with you.<\/p>\n
Education courses<\/strong><\/h2>\n

- The next cohort of our Championing Physical Activity<\/a> course starts next week, but if this is something that you might be interested in please contact us at dementia@worc.ac.uk<\/a> for more information and to get your name on a list for future courses.<\/li>\n
- A few weeks ago we delivered a Dementia Awareness course at the Guildhall here in Worcester for individuals from a range of local organisations. It was a great group that appeared to find the course useful and worthwhile, with all participants saying they would recommend it to others. If you\u2019re looking for something similar, why not get in touch with us to see what we could offer<\/a>?<\/li>\n
- Although our Postgraduate Certificate<\/a> modules have only just finished, we\u2019re already thinking about September and our next modules. Over the Summer we\u2019ll be getting everything set up ready to welcome new and existing students. If you\u2019re interested in studying with us but aren\u2019t sure what\u2019s involved or where to get started, we\u2019ve got an open evening event coming up on 1st<\/sup> July where you can ask us any questions you might have. Email catrin.jones@worc.ac.uk<\/a> to book a slot.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\nWe\u2019re also working on a dementia awareness course within the University of Worcester for staff and students, and hope to be able to share more information about that soon.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s on top of all our ongoing research projects, so plenty to keep us out of mischief!<\/p>\n
