Having seen the positive impact Cognitive Books ⚙️ 📚 have in #care settings, it was great to share them with Andrew Gwynne MP, Shadow #SocialCare Minister of The Labour Party during the Alzheimer's Society annual conference #ASAC24 #dementia

This was one of my career highlights. Such a privilege to meet someone so seminal in the field of Alzheimer’s Disease research - not a scientist, but one of our very own Alzheimer's Society Dementia Advisors at one point!! She is my inspiration that one person can change the world. 💙

Carol Jennings had a bigger impact in Alzheimer's disease research than anyone. Carol once said she wanted to make the world a better place for her children. While many of us have that ambition, very few people ever achieve it on the scale Carol did.
