I don’t run for fun! Trust me 6ft 3in and 88kg isn’t running physique!
But it helps others. So we keep running!
Longest run since @LondonMarathon 2024! Now only around£1240 short of £300000 for @DementiaUK ❤️

Will you be the Prime Minister to transform dementia care, @Keir_Starmer?
At your first @UKLabour conference as the Prime Minister, we've prepared an essential checklist for delivering real change for people affected by #dementia. We're ready to work with you. 👇 [1/6]
So proud to finally be able to share our new podcast!!!
Working on this has been so emotional, and so much fun.
I hope this will be something that helps, inspires and supports families as well as giving an excellent insight into life with Dementia.
Let us know what you think .
Since the new UK Government was elected, we've heard lots about the need to fix our 'broken' NHS.
With 1 in 2 of us set to be affected by #dementia in our lifetime, fixing dementia care is the perfect place to start.

Roxanne our Admiral Nurse, attended the Havering Creative community event to raise awareness about dementia resources available locally. She also provided information about Admiral Nurses in the hospital, explaining how they support individuals and families affected by dementia.
"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.

Enhanced nurses, including #dementia specialist #AdmiralNurses, can now be funded through the Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme (ARRS).
The addition of Admiral Nurses into the ARRS scheme presents a brilliant opportunity to support families navigating the condition. 💙
A collaborative approach between GPs and Admiral Nurses will ensure fewer families reach crisis point and could also improve diagnosis times and accuracy.

It’s great to see this initiative by @England & the @FA raising awareness of Dementia, so may I suggest that contacting @DementiaUK & their Admiral Nurses Helpline for information & support is a very helpful & highly respected service

There are lots of people interested in selling “parental control” apps & products, but the answer is for kids not to have smart phones, they don’t need them anymore than they need cigarettes or alcohol, they are detrimental to their development.
