This article describes the work of the 'Action on Living Well: Asking You' group - an involvement group of people with dementia and carers attached to the IDEAL research study. The article describes the work of the group, the methods that have helped them to stay involved and people's perspectives on their experiences of being involved and the impact it has had, for themselves and others. The article has been written following a reflective piece of work with the 'Action on Living Well: Asking You' group to review and remember the work of the past four years. An accompanying film brings to life the work and activities of the group, available at www.idealproject.org.uk/mclass/.
