Hi @Stuart sims welcome to the forum, I'm sorry that you have this concern about your dad. It's the first time I've ever heard of that type of dementia that I had to look it up and see that it's alcohol related. I also found this link: https://www.alzheimers.org.uk/about-dementia/types-dementia/korsakoffs-syndrome which has some information about support. Good luck to you.
