The reality of dementia in lockdown

The impact of coronavirus has been shattering for families affected by dementia. Urgent action must be taken to better protect people ahead of the winter.

Dedicate a message to Government to make them address the reality of lockdown for people affected by dementia.

I would like the Government to address the situation regarding visiting Relatives in Care Homes as a matter of urgency. The last time I visited my Mother in her Care home was March 12th. That's 7 months without any physical contact from me or any other relatives. We had Garden visits & window visits but they have all stopped now as the local area has been back In lockdown. I understand we have to keep the most vulnerable safe, but there has to be a way forward to allow us to visit.
