Quite a morning!

It was an honour to attend the launch of the Gov's 10 Year Health Plan today and discuss the changes needed to ensure a sustainable future for the NHS.

Alongside fantastic @alzheimerssoc campaigner Trevor, we made the case that dementia must be made a priority!

It’s been one week since @arlenephillips, @Vicky_McClure, @KateLeeCEO @Debbie_abrahams @ElliotColburn and Ananga Moonesinghe handed in our letter to 10 Downing Street asking for the Government to publish their 10-year plan for dementia.
We’re still waiting @RishiSunak...
