Hello everyone. I'm Graham and new to talking point. My wife has had difficulty with her memory for the past 3 years and recently been diagnosed with Alzheimers. I'm feeling a little bit lost and I hope that the people on talking point can help me to help my wife.

Hello @GrahamH and welcome to DTP.

It’s sad you find yourself here but you will find a wealth of support, advice and understanding here. We are all at some point along the journey and some of us the other side now, between us we have experienced it all. Please use the forum, right now you must have lots of questions.

Hope to see you posting very soon.

Hullo and welcome to Dementia Talking Point, Graham. You will find a supportive community here, as we are all going through similar battles. So, ask anything or just offload any frustrations and someone will be around to support you.
https://www.alzheimers.org.uk/about-dementia/types-dementia/alzheimers-disease should give you some useful information and https://www.alzheimers.org.uk/find-support-near-you should help you find local support services like memory cafes which I have found to be very helpful.
