DREAMS START, University College London
Helping the lives of people with dementia and their caregivers by improving sleep
Animation
DREAMS START is a psychological intervention designed to help people with dementia and their caregivers improve sleep.
A team of dementia experts at UCL worked with people with lived experience to create a program of 6 customisable sessions that give participants the tools to make changes that will improve the sleep for everyone.
The UCL team came to us towards the end of the project, looking for help to raise awareness about the Dreams: START intervention. In particular they wanted to bring the program to the attention of NHS commissioners who are in a position to offer the intervention as an option for those living with dementia and their carers.
We created a short animation including testimony from carers who have benefited from the intervention.
