Remember the person

Dementia Awareness Week 2012

This year Dementia Awareness Week took place from 20-26 May. It is our annual awareness campaign, and it's our big opportunity to increase understanding of dementia and to get people to remember that there's more to a person than the dementia.

As part of the week please share the video on this page with all your friends and family.
