Capturing the experience of people with dementia

From our consultations with you and understanding your feedback, we recognised the need for a name change that embodies the core values of the project. We would like to introduce to you, ‘Greater Moments’ as the new name for the lived experience barometer and ask you to select your favourite 3 logo designs.

Social Sense and Hitch have been commissioned by Dementia United to develop a “Lived Experience Barometer.” This will be used to capture information about what it is like to live with dementia in Greater Manchester. Since April 2019 they have been meeting with people affected by dementia across all 10 localities and asking, “what is important to you?”

We’ve  had an amazing response so far. With this information, you are helping us to design a platform that will not only capture the lived experience but provide you with valuable feedback on your wellbeing and ensure your voice is heard.

The new name ‘Greater Moments’ celebrates the positives and what is possible for people living with dementia. It also gets people and local services behind a shared vision of creating improved experiences for people living with dementia. We also wanted to recognise our proud link with Greater Manchester.

We’re asking you to choose the new logo for Greater Moments – the top-rated design will then be incorporated throughout the Greater Moments project and within the platform itself.

You can choose from a range of logos that are set out in the  Greater Moments Design consultation leaflet and in the online version of the Greater Moments design consultation

You can let us know your top three logos via online,  by email or by post to: Social Sense, Digital World, 1 Lowry Plaza, Salford Quays, Manchester, M50 3UB.

Your feedback is important to us. If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact Social Sense by email info@socialsense.co.uk or telephone 0161 216 4080
