Lorna Smith is a PhD Student and Research Assistant at the University of Plymouth. Lorna recently started her PhD, using mixed methods to explore the value of engaging with nature on the quality of life for people living with dementia. Prior to this, she has been working in dementia research in studies that aimed to improve or maintain the quality of life for those affected by the condition.
