The In-Touch project, funded with €7.5 million from the EU, aims to enhance the quality of life for individuals with advanced dementia. Led by the University College of Cork (UCC), a research group of 13 institutions across the EU, UK, and Canada, will investigate a comprehensive, non-pharmacological intervention for dementia.  

This study will be trialled in 56 care homes across seven countries, focusing on palliative care, staff training, and improving well-being through tailored, multi-sensory activities for residents and their families.
