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.

My mum was in a beautiful care home for nearly 3 years but sadly she passed away on 19th October. Unfortunately lockdown had a detrimental affect on my mum from April she sadly deteriorated and lost a lot of weight. Garden visits were then confined to her room with only myself being able to visit wearing PPE. The only time other family members could see mum was at the end of her life. Shall miss my mum so much.
