Myself and fellow South Tyneside Admiral Nurses attending the @dementiaforward U & Me conference at Bowcliffe Hall in aid of those with Young Onset Dementia to kick off Dementia Action Week! 💛💫
After a wonderful launch event this week, I'm excited to be leading an evaluation exploring the impact of Admiral Nurses across South Tyneside

Dementia is such a cruel disease but with targeted help people affected, including their families, can have a better quality of life - this man tells his story https://t.co/GgvkykUknL
Absolutely barbaric. I can't quite comprehend what I have just watched. How dare people do that to other human beings, nevermind those who are extremely vulnerable and struggle with severe mental health issues #Panorama
The abhorrent behaviour of nursing staff on display on the BBC's #Panorama tonight is a disgrace to the profession of mental health nursing.
There is no place in nursing for such awful practice, and no excuse. Ever.
"It's not easy asking for help and it's frightening but it will be the bravest and best thing you will ever do because it will change you and your life for the better." #RecoveryMonth
An absolute privilege to speak at #ANForum2022 today, sharing the evidence on suicide & homicide risk in carers.
@DementiaUK Admiral Nurses already do fantastic work supporting at-risk carers & it was great to see even more ideas being generated today.
Unpaid carers estimated worth £132 billion per year- same cost to run the NHS. Powerful fact unpaid carers are invisible NHS. @Siobhan_ODwyer#ANforum222@DementiaUK

'Sad that she believes in a toy dog but heart-warming that she clearly gets so much comfort from it.'
Sarah Norquoy's mum is living with vascular dementia. To provide some pet therapy, she's bought her a 'breathing' pug.
Thanks to Sarah for sharing this moment with us. 💙
