It has been shaped by many discussions with many people – family members, clients and by my colleagues in the field of dementia care. The groundwork came from my time in Birmingham working as a clinical psycholo- gist within a multi-disciplinary team who, looking back, appear now to have been quite ahead of their time – Hilary Nissenbaum, Carole Dinshaw, Jan Oyebode, Claire Crawley and Paul Pyke to name just a few. Over the years those clinical psychologists working with older people – particularly Bob Woods, Linda Clare, Esme Moniz-Cook, Mike Bender, Rik Cheston, Graham Stokes, Polly Kaiser, Nicky Bradbury and Ian James – have provided a bed-rock for developing these ideas. The person who helped me make most sense of the challenging terrain, first through his writing and later through his mentorship, was undoubtedly the late Tom Kitwood. Without Tom, this book simply would not have existed. Tom gave me a map which led even- tually to many years of work with the Bradford Dementia Group. Murna Downs ensured the book was written, and her editing and wise counsel have been invaluable. My other colleagues and friends at Bradford have supplied many thoughts and ideas along the way, and have graciously supplied me with the space to write – Claire Surr, Paul Edwards, Caroline Baker, Hazel May and Jean Martin have been my constant companions in the writing. Errollyn Bruce and Ruth Bartlett provided some much needed inspiration too. Christine Bryden’s writing was both an inspiration and a validation. Thanks especially to Caroline Baker for making the connections between Christine’s writing and our thoughts on positive person work. The wider community of Dementia Care Mapping (DCM) trainers and practitioners – Lisa Heller, Jane Fossey, Tracy Packer, Elizabeth Barnett, Tessa Perrin, Tracey Lintern, Eva Bonde-Nielsen, 7 8 P E R S O N - C E N T R E D D E M E N T I A C A R E Yutaka Mizuno, Christian Muller-Hergl, Roseann Kasayka and Virginia Moore have shaped my thinking in ways that are too many to count. All the many people and care providers who generously provided feedback on the early stages of the VIPS tool are the ones to thank if the tool proves to be of use in practice. My work with practitioners at the ExtraCare Charitable Trust, and lately with a very committed group at the Commission for Social Care Inspec- tion, has undoubtedly sharpened my thinking and, I hope, made the output more practicable. Finally, thanks to my lovely husband and son and to my mum for understanding my compulsion to write this all down.
