Emma Doney

Having lost of mother at the age of 9 to Leukaemia, I was extremely close to my paternal grandmother. So when she was diagnosis with dementia when I was 19, my world fell apart again. Having initially studied to become a Meteorologist, my career took a 180 when my grandmother became ill with dementia. After a complete career change and the birth of my first daughter, I went on to study a Level 5 diploma in Leadership & Management for Health and Social Care, founding Adorno Companions. Adorno Companions now provide life changing independence support to individuals with life limiting illnesses such as dementia.
