It’s important to think about the delays in achieving a diagnosis. But these delays are not random. Some communities including those with their roots in south Asian countries are disproportionately affected. Our toolkit helps https://t.co/k7rEsyiHaD @SahdiaParveen @JutllaK

Thank you @LauraJ4SWEast for highlighting the importance of an accurate and timely diagnosis in the Senedd 💙

Almost one in five people in Wales who notice symptoms of dementia are waiting more than six months before voicing their concerns.
