Abstract

The definitive aim of Barbora’s research is to improve the healthy lifestyle of carers of people living with dementia. This reflects her training and research experience so far. Being involved in different projects, Barbora has identified that there is a need for a research that would specifically focus on healthy lifestyle support for carers of people living with dementia. In addition, carers often express that they feel not seen when it comes to research and that the research itself is often detached from their daily experience.

Aims

This award will support Barbora to co-produce research funding application for a fellowship.
