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 have tried so hard to get to see my husband and be able to touch and hold him. He has dementia and Parkinson's cannot talk, walk hear very well and is now on liquid foods. I have been on BBC Look East so many times asking the government to let me in so that I can touch my husband. Have written and emailed my MP and Suffolk Health minister. Feel I cannot do much more. Would love to be on this new pilot scheme so I could at last hold my husband 50 years before it is too lateTorture of the heart
