A Toxteth youth ambassador for the Alzheimer's Society won a prestigious Dementia Hero Award.
Adbulwase Sufian, 19 whose grandmother lives with dementia, has helped raise awareness of the UK's diverse dementia community by developing a Yemeni heritage app. As communication with his grandmother became challenging he approached House of Memories, an app for people with dementia and their carers and gave it a focus on supporting Yemeni elders with dementia.
Following over two years collaborating with Connecting with Yemeni Elders Heritage Project (YEHP) and National Museums Liverpool, this became a new bi-lingual addition to the My House of Memories app. He first came up with the idea aged 15.
