The joint project "Out and about with dementia" developed with the "Rifugio Re Carlo Alberto (Italy) and supported by EFID finished in March 2017. The project achieved results in the following categories: community participation; participation of people with dementia; awareness raising; new services developed or planned. In particular, over 150 lay citizens and more than 70 business and associations were involved in the project. Companies understood the value of providing more dementia-friendly services and spaces. Over 80 people living with dementia and 20 caregivers were involved since the very beginning of the project, demonstrating the importance of the participation of people with dementia in every phase of the project. There was an overwhelming response from social and traditional media to help 'put out there' information about what dementia is and isn't and that there are ways of living well with dementia. The holiday exchange helped to distinguish the project from other awareness raising projects and created a feel good factor that helped the media to talk about dementia in a positive way without undermining the difficulties. A 30-minute documentary film has been produced. Beside these results, the first 4 dementia friendly hotels were established in Italy (3) and Kortrijk (1) and several sport activities and a dementia-friendly mountain walk to an Alpine Refuge were developed. Finally, the project implemented useful dementia-friendly cultural mediation and translation services for international visitors in the case of hospitalization or other emergencies. Our work towards dementia-friendly tourism in Kortrijk has reached key decision makers at local and regional level, namely service of public welfare, sport, leisure, tourism, culture and the Flemish government. In particular, we created a dementia-friendly guided promenade in the centre of Kortrijk in collaboration with the West-Flemish Guide Association. Moreover, we created a dementia-friendly holiday in collaboration with local businesses such as the FOCUS Hostel, the West-Flemish Guide Association, local pubs, WZC De Weister, etc. Finally, a brand new sport programme is now accessible to people with dementia, thanks to the work done with the service of sport of the city of Kortrijk. The week-long awareness raising campaign "Move for Dementia" (20-27 November 2016) involved the community, people with dementia and their caregivers, local authorities, artists and a dance company. A week full of activities to engage people and raise awareness on dementia.
