Dementia resources

Dementia UK is specialist dementia nursing charity that is available for the whole family. 

What is the Herbert Protocol?

The Herbert Protocol is a form that carers, family or friends of a vulnerable person, or the person themselves can fill in.

It contains a list of information to help the police if the person goes missing, including:

• medication required
• mobile numbers
• places previously located
• a recent photograph

Keeping a completed form saves the worry of trying to recall the information during the stressful time of someone going missing. It also saves time for the police, allowing the search to start sooner.

The Alzheimers Society understands all aspects of dementia.
