Powerful testimony from a Broadwater Farm Estate Resident about how the Jewish community were one of the only communities who helped the #Windrush generation when they first arrived in London.

We hope that Lowestoft Men's Shed have a great time this weekend celebrating the Lowestoft First Light Festival this weekend. The Lowestoft Shedders have built an impressive 30ft long table which is going to be used during the festival. #MensSheds #ShedsintheCommunity #Shedders
‘Uncertainty, financial strain and stigma dogged and marred those final months and weeks in a way that it would not have done for other big killers.’ Clare, whose dad recently passed away, writes about the unfair financial hardship of dementia care: bit.ly/2FojZ6V
Made with 90% water, Jelly Drops are a bright and tasty way of keeping people with dementia hydrated. We'll be proudly supporting their development over the next year, to help bring them to market - find out more about them here! 👇 alzheimers.org.uk/blog/jelly-dro…

We're delighted that Alzheimer's Society Ambassador Ian Sherriff has been recognised with an MBE in the #QueensBirthdayHonours. Ian has worked tirelessly to improve the lives of people with dementia both across the UK and globally; congratulations, it's thoroughly deserved!

A think tank is recommending making social care free for people over 65, paid for by a 2p tax rise. Those who could afford it would pay for accommodation but not personal care. This would reduce bed-blocking, saving the NHS up to £4.5bn a year. See more: bit.ly/2HOBcHi
Here's a fascinating and useful listen - @MichaelRosenYes explores the best methods of communicating with someone affected by dementia who may have difficulty expressing themselves: bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…
7 year old Libby shares with us her caring action! So lovely ❤️ #DementiaFriends
Hoe do we measure the difference on the ground for people living with dementia in dementia-friendly communities? #unitedagainstdementia we need to measure progress! @DementiaFriends @AlzSoc
#DementiaFriends Champions are dedicated volunteers who help to raise awareness of dementia all across the country by presenting local Information Sessions. Did you know...
Lynda never expected to have to pay for her husband’s dementia care. But like so many others, she's been left to cover the cost for herself. It just isn't fair. We urgently need to #FixDementiaCare- but we can't do it without your help. Join our cause: alzheimers.org.uk/our-campaigns/…
So interesting hearing what all the @DementiaFriends Champions have beenndoing at the #unitedagainstdementia conference, using all their business contacts and approaching businesses cold to raise awareness of and take action on dementia.
