AMBIGUOUS LOSS AND ALZHEIMER'S

Live Webinar with Q&A
​
Thursday 21st September 2023, 18.30-20:00 BST
​
On World Alzheimer’s Day, we are offering a bite-sized 90 minute webinar session to help you understand ambiguous loss with a focus on Alzheimer’s Disease and dementia. We welcome you whether you know someone who is affected or support people in a professional role.
 
Around 920,000 people are living with dementia in the UK (Alzheimer’s Society, 2019), so it’s a surprise little is mentioned about the ambiguous loss experienced by those around them. This comes under type two where the person may be physically present but psychologically absent.
 
You will learn to
  • Define ambiguous loss and what it means to us
  • Identify unique factors linked with dementia
  • Understand differences to other types of loss and grief
  • Recognise the impact of ambiguous loss
  • Explore the MARCH Model and ways to cope
  • Provide tips and strategies to live well with uncertainty
  • Share further resources and support.  
 
You get
  • 1.5 hour online session delivered via Zoom
  • First-hand lived experiences of ambiguous loss
  • Clear and concise bite-sized knowledge
  • Professional PowerPoint presentation
  • Time for questions and answers
  • Handout with resources list for further learning
  • CPD certificate on completion if required.

​Reviews
​“Great workshop to gain a better understanding of our own ambiguous losses and to support others with their own.” ~ Mariam Andrawiss
 
“The course was extremely useful in helping me to understand not only what ambiguous loss means, but also how wide reaching it can be in terms of life experience - how this painful and enduring loss without closure can affect any one of us.” 
~ Philippa Crunden
 
​“Chloe led us gently and confidently through a sensitive topic of ambiguous loss, clarifying the complexities of this type of loss that seems to be underexplored in our culture. It was a safe and absorbing exploration.” 
~ Sebastiana Black
 
“Chloe is a vastly experienced, knowledgeable and heart-centred guide who can ably assist you on your journey to finding answers to the haunting questions that linger with experiences of ambiguous loss."
~ Dr Mick Collins
 
"As an initial introduction this was great and very thought provoking. It is a huge subject and we scratched the surface, however I will be researching this based on the helpful learning resources provided.” 
~ Mark Reynolds
