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.

The families of care home residents have done everything asked of us and now we NEED something in return. We need KEY WORKER STATUS, we need to be able to visit on a regular basis, fully trained in PPE requirements, we need to have access to regular Covid-19 testing with a fast turnaround so we can support our families. Our families don't have time to wait and we are no longer willing to wait. This would be the greatest Christmas gift of all. Help those who cannot help themselves. Thank you.
