At #CornwallDementiaConference enjoying Prof Banerjee. Stigma, myth that normal part of ageing, myth that nothing can be done… all cause inactivity in seeking and offering help. Must do more to cut the stigma and myths so we can really do more.

A comment I get often when I tell people that I work in #dementia is 'That must be really sad’. Well, sometimes. But a lot of the time - we laugh, we dance & we live well together. Today’s scenes for #WorldAzhiemersDay @CeartasAdvocacy Wellbeing Day. @PlaylistforLife @WeekdayWOW
