The COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on dementia services. We sought to ascertain MAS service views across Wessex (Hampshire, Isle of Wight, Dorset) as a peer-support exercise to support recovery planning. The meeting was held for one hour via videconference on 6 May, 2020 and attended by 33 regional dementia clinicians. To accompany this a survey was also circulated to Hampshire and Thames Valley dementia stakeholders for additional comments. The feedback from the discussion and survey were summarised and form the basis of this report.
