Liverpool City Region Combined Authority is working with each of the local councils - Liverpool, Sefton, Wirral, Knowsley, St Helens and Halton -  and other partners to help make this a Dementia Friendly Community where all people affected by the condition can feel included and involved in the life of the region.
