People living with dementia and their carers in rural and regional areas face particular challenges around loneliness and isolation, heightened by a lack of access to dementia-inclusive outdoor and public spaces. Carmela Leone, Rachel Winterton and Irene Blackberry are undertaking a study in rural and regional Victoria exploring the rights of people with dementia and carers to participation, inclusion and access to public space.
