I work for the Alzheimer’s society, love the coast, am generally an optimist despite being a mother to two teenagers. All views my own.

Excellent idea!!

This needs addressing in wales. The cross party group on dementia and DOIIG should convene virtual meetings to address the impact.
The covid 19 wrecking ball may have knocked down blocks built during the action plan. My recent experience has identified many points. 1/2

I say this not as a bereaved daughter.. but with professional and personal and evidenced lived experience. Shine the light now on the impact on dementia. In the community, in settings and services. The impact may be invisible to those that see..but not to those that feel.

Very moving and insightful conversations with residents of a care home today via video call. It is so good and so important to be able to talk directly with residents about their experiences of lockdown. Am very grateful to the residents and staff for making it happen.

[Jane Platts @JanePlatts01]

Eloquent as always! It is a huge fear how we transition out of this lockdown and is something that needs serious consideration @alzheimerssoc @AlzSocDemVoice

Morning Twitteroos...in case you missed it yesterday...

So will I be left behind
Will my speed be too slow
My slow motion brain
Incapable of catching the flow…..

#GeorgeFloyd Hope none of these work alongside you.Their parents must be so proud of them
Hope these photos come back to haunt them when seeking their next job or some other time in the future
Why do people stand by & think this is “just a bit of fun”, that “boys will be boys” 🤔

[Jane Platts @JanePlatts01]

George laying it out simply and clearly. Brilliant
