Lewy Body Spain

Lewy Body ESPAÑA, initiated campaigning in June 2022 at the seventh International Lewy body Dementia Conference (ILBDC) in Newcastle, England. Our first initiative was facilitating a Lewy Body Dementia webinar to DomusVi Azalea care home in Marbella, Spain. Our mission is to raise awareness of DLB (Demencia con Cuerpos de Lewy) in Spain and Latin America, and educate those in the health and care profession how to support people living with this type of dementia (and Parkinsons in some cases), as well as their families and carers. While research is taking place in Spain, the outcomes and insights are not widespread among medical professionals, and it is hard to find information in Spanish (lengua española o Castellano).
