Did you know 1 in 3 people in the UK living with dementia do not have a diagnosis? Dementia Action Week (19–25 May 2025) focuses on the importance of early diagnosis. At PeoplePlus, we support this indirectly through the innovative Gloucestershire Carers Hub, which provides practical help and advice to unpaid carers - many of whom care for someone living with dementia. For professionals, this week is a timely prompt to think not just about people with dementia, but also about the unpaid carers often hidden in plain sight in our workplaces and communities.

Some of the UK’s best candidates never make it past the first screen. Not because they lack motivation. Not because they’re underqualified. But because old systems quietly screen them out. By postcode. By name. By a CV that doesn’t follow the ‘right’ path. And we act surprised when roles stay unfilled. If you’ve already made the shift, hiring for potential, not just polish: you’re not the problem. You’re part of the solution.

At PeoplePlus, we’ve launched the Digital Poverty Pot to take action, funding devices, connectivity, and access for those who need it most. This isn’t just about tech. It’s about fairness. Because employability starts with being able to log in. 🔗 Read the full blog to find out what we’re doing and how you can help.

On the surface, many workplaces appear to be thriving. Meetings run smoothly, people are polite, conflict is rare. Leaders might look around and think, "We're doing well." But there's a question that doesn't get asked often enough: Is the harmony real? Or is it false?

Digital poverty doesn’t just exclude, it erases. Imagine losing access to your bank, your doctor, your benefits, your job search, all because you can’t connect. For 13 million adults in the UK, that’s not hypothetical. It’s everyday life. This isn’t a slow drift. It’s a rupture. But here’s the good news: we can change it and we already are. At PeoplePlus and LearningPlus, we’re working with those living this reality. Not theorising. Doing.
