Caring for those with #dementia can be challenging. There’s a risk they can ‘walk about & go missing. You can keep them safe through the Herbert Protocol, a form that carers, family or friends or the vulnerable themselves person can fill in: https://t.co/k2OZxKV5m4

Letting others know about Dementia Friends is a great action you can take to help create a more understanding community for people living with dementia.

So, spread the word and help us transform the way the nation thinks, acts and talks about dementia.

[Dementia Friends @DementiaFriends]

Too many people with dementia feel that society fails to understand the condition they live with. Dementia Friends help by learning about dementia & raising awareness, so that people living with the condition feel accepted in their communities.

Boost your mood and find meaning by connecting to nature. 🌿
Get creative with nature. Take part in creative activities outside, like dance, music, or art. You could also take photos, draw, write or paint. Maybe you could search for items in your garden and make a collage?
