Dementia

Use this guide to find information on dementia and the support services which are available to help people and their families who are impacted by the disease during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Staying connected

If you’d like to connect online with other people affected by dementia, try Skype, FaceTime, Zoom or Talking Point.
Don’t forget the pleasure of receiving a letter or postcard.
Simply picking up the phone and making sure that people are okay could make a huge difference at this time.
