Event Details
Learn how HR can support employees with dementia by fostering inclusive policies, raising awareness and creating a strengths-based culture.
With rising retirement ages and a growing number of younger people diagnosed with dementia (over 71,000 under 65), it’s vital for HR professionals to increase awareness and understanding of dementia in the workplace. This session will explore how dementia can affect individuals differently and provide practical strategies for offering meaningful support at work.
Why This Matters for HR Professionals
Younger employees with dementia may face unique challenges, such as balancing caregiving responsibilities or raising children alongside their diagnosis. Navigating workplace systems can be overwhelming for them, but with the right policies and approaches, you can make a difference.
At this session, we’ll challenge outdated perceptions of dementia and focus on how HR leaders can foster inclusive, strengths-based environments that empower individuals at every stage of their journey.
Who Should Attend?
This session is designed for HR professionals, managers, occupational health teams, and anyone responsible for employee wellbeing. If you’re keen to create a workplace culture that truly supports colleagues with dementia, this is for you.
About Effro
We are part of Platfform, the mental health and social change charity with over 30 years experience. Effro is Platfform’s dementia support project which supports people living with dementia to lead fulfilling lives based on sensory experiences and activities that spark real joy.
Many dementia charities and organisations only focus on the practical or medical needs of the people they work with. At Effro, we believe there’s more that can be done; that recognising the needs, preferences and individuality of each person creates opportunities for a better life.
Through this approach, we work with people to explore the things that interest them, that bring fascination or excitement, and that add to a life joyfully lived.
The work we do with people living with dementia includes activity sessions in any residential setting, one-to-one support, liaison and guidance, and new ways and ideas to reignite passions and stir positive memories.
Speaker:
Rhian Pitt
Rhian has been co-producing, developing, and delivering workshops with Effro since the training team was formed in 2021. With nearly 15 years of experience in teaching and training, she also brings personal connections to dementia, remaining mindful of the topic’s sensitive nature.

We’ve heard your questions and concerns about the current context for EDI and networks within that, so we’re doing something special in response.

Our co-chairs Dr Vanessa Vallely OBE and Birgit Neu will set the scene with some provocations, before turning it over to you to roll up your sleeves and get inventive together!
We’ll also get the latest gender news from Harriet Minter and have spotlights on our host ERG and a charity as part of this event.
Please share this invitation with ERG chairs from other gender networks at your client/partner firms across sectors to help us bring even more diverse perspectives into the discussion. We look forward to having a vibrant in-person conversation and lots of new ideas and connections for all of our participants.
See you there!

Traditional approaches to corporate healthcare have focused on addressing acute episodes of sickness and injury, getting people ‘back to work’. However, in today’s workplace, issues such as stress, poor sleep, and other more chronic and less visible conditions are having the biggest impact on both well-being and productivity.
Join us for an exclusive evening of networking and discussions from some of the UK’s foremost academic and clinical specialists covering some of the biggest healthcare and well-being challenges affecting the corporate workplace. Our clinician partners will share valuable insights on the prevention, diagnosis, and management of stress, sleep, skin, cardiac, gastrointestinal & women’s health issues.
We hope you can join us and a host of London’s leading employers, for an evening that promises to be both informative, engaging and memorable.

Your CV is the passport to your professional future. The right one will bypass the technology and the initial 5-second human scan to earmark you for your target role. Isn’t that what a great CV is all about?
Writing your own CV doesn’t come naturally. Everyone benefits from fresh eyes, perspective and industry insight. Your CV must articulate your distinctive skills and attributes in a way that shows the value you bring to your future employer.

In this one-hour masterclass, learn CV writing tips and strategies from Victoria McLean, Founder and CEO of City CV – and a career industry expert, award winning CV writer and coach, who has helped over 20,000 candidates secure their dream role. Victoria has developed a nuanced and strategic approach, fusing market knowledge with a deep understanding of recruitment techniques to help build your brand and create a compelling CV story.
Learn how to create a strong and authentic CV which will get you noticed for the right reasons. Expertise and insider knowledge gathered from years of international CV writing and recruiting will be shared, including:
- CV evolution – how AI and algorithms can make or break your career (and how to beat the CV robots)
- Soft skills to avoid in your CV – how to show, not tell
- The essentials for every bullet point
- How to ‘prove it’
- Be ‘smart’ – sell yourself every step of the way
- Avoid the formatting errors that guarantee rejection from most CV screening systems

We’re proud to announce our partnership with The Brilliance Summit, an electrifying one-day event for women in leadership who are ready to reclaim their power and elevate their professional journey.
This isn’t just a summit—it’s a movement.
“At The Brilliance Summit, women show up, speak up, and level up. They shake off limitations, own their presence, and lean into their next level.”
Taking place in London on Thursday, 26th June this transformative event is curated for ambitious women who lead, whether that’s in the boardroom, the business world, or within themselves.
Here’s why this matters:
- It’s not a motivational talk-fest—it’s real talk, real tools, real change.
- You’ll walk away with more than inspiration. You’ll leave with action steps, new connections, and a deeper understanding of your brilliance.
- The impact doesn’t end at 5pm. The clarity and confidence you gain echo long into your personal and professional life.
We’ve seen the power of what happens when women are given space to show up fully—and this is that space.
As partners, we’re excited to offer our community a discounted ticket.
