@flavin_theresa @alzheimersocirl No Theresa. Alzheimer's Society UK ran that ad. The landscape is complex! In UK there's Alz Soc, Alz Scotland and Alz Soc Ireland. Then there is Dementia UK, Dementia Research UK and Alz Research UK. There are probably more! Alz Scotland ran a more positive ad recently.

@DementiaUK Much needed in Australia!

"I don’t think it’s properly understood how intense, skilled and complex the level of care is when it comes to looking after someone with #dementia. If it was, we surely wouldn’t have this constant battle for any sort of funding."

Thank you to Mahersh for sharing his story this #WorldAlzheimersMonth.

Read his story and find out how you can get involved to ensure no family faces dementia alone: https://t.co/gwRANsC34A

@AlzheimerEurope So important and (I think) under- researched.

[Dr Jane Thompson @JaneThompsonAdv]

@ATRI_USC @DrKaramacoska Will a recording be available. It will be 2am in Australia!

@KateSwaffer @Doctor_Samba I would expect people living with dementia, carer partners/former care partners and wider public with interest in dementia to be involved in the development of these updated guidelines. Surely???

[Dr Jane Thompson @JaneThompsonAdv]

@_IsabelleBurke Well done Isabelle. You are a star!!!
