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.

In March I was told that I couldn't see you.. You didn't understand. Kept in a home with maybe a phone call.. You didn't understand.. Thinking you had been dumped, the dementia got worst.. You didn't understand. You caught the virus and was kept in a room.. You didn't understand. Fight or flight, you chose to fight, so they sectioned you... We didn't understand. Your now sectioned 3, asking everyone to help you.. They don't understand. I'm trying to get you out mum. I do understand.
