About the Authors
Alison Bowes is Professor in Sociology and Dean of the Faculty of Social Sciences in the University of Stirling, UK.

She has a particular interest in supporting people living with dementia, including families and communities.
Alison Dawson has been a Research Fellow in the Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Stirling, UK, for more than a decade. As an Applied Sociologist, she draws on a unique blend of business-oriented academic qualifications and public and private sector regulatory work experience to identify, analyse and understand challenges to social policy and practice and offer workable solutions and recommendations for action. Her research has examined and evaluated a range of policies and practices aimed at supporting and/or improving the well-being of vulnerable older people in different contexts.
