Hi All,
Just passing on a link I came across.
Starting the 7th November, the BBC Radio 4 will be running programs for dementia month. They are looking for input for stories and the issues that people would like to see covered.

Starting on November 7th a special month-long series looks at the often devastating effect it can have on people's lives, and those who care for them.
Our panel of experts will examine the causes of some of the 200 different kinds of dementia, including Alzheimer’s and vascular dementia, and who is at risk of developing them. We investigate key issues surrounding care, drug availability and the latest scientific research. We look at the power of memory, the role of music and alternative therapies, and how to tackle challenging behaviour. And we talk to families struggling to cope, as well as couples who feel dementia has made their relationship stronger than ever.
Have you been affected by dementia? Tell us your experiences, and what issues you'd like us to cover. We will be featuring some of your stories within the series.
Also many thanks for the society supporting the program!
