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.

My dad has Alzheimer's and is in a care home. I have only seen him a few times for 30 mins only. He has gone down hill rapidly because not having any visits from his family and friends. The government think it's more important for people to play sport or get drunk rather than provide testing for relatives of vulnerable people in care homes. They should be ashamed. I miss my dad. I am NOT a visitor I am his family and should be allowed to spend more time with him.
