    Everyone at Dementia UK is deeply saddened to learn of the death of @WendyPMitchell. A tireless campaigner, Wendy’s writing and work helped many people understand what it is like to live with dementia, as well as giving a powerful voice to those living with the condition.💙[1/4]

    Our new short film, ‘Together Again’, tells the story of a husband feeling isolated and alone when faced with his wife’s dementia – and how the gentle guidance and support of an Admiral Nurse helps to re-unite them.

    We want to wish you all a happy and relaxing festive season and remind you that there is no such thing as the ‘perfect’ Christmas. Pop a heart '💙' in the comments if you agree. 👇 Our Helpline (0800 888 6678) is open every day except 25th December if you need support.
    Pink border, black and pink text. Six illustrations of beans on toast, a chess board, a clock, a present, a 'do not disturb' sign and photo frame. Text reads, Christmas day doesn't always go to plan. It's ok if the person living with dementia... Eats beans on toast for dinner. Doesn't take part in games. Sticks to their usual routine. Doesn't want to open presents. Has some alone time. Forgets someone has passed away.

    Caring for someone with #dementia can be overwhelming. 💙 This #CarersWeek, we're raising awareness of the challenges carers face, and how we can all help out. What are your best tips? Tag a friend who might need them! 👇

Picking up shopping (underneath an illustration of a carrier bag), being their lift to appointments (underneath an illustration of a hospital), cleaning the house (underneath an illustration of a spray cleaning bottle and rubber glove), babysitting their children (underneath an illustration of two adults and a child), cooking them dinner (underneath an illustration of a pot of soup), and providing a listening ear (underneath an illustration of a face smiling and listening).
