This #WorldAlzheimersMonth we’re raising awareness of #stigma in #dementia which can make it hard for people to speak up. Peter Berry was diagnosed with #YoungOnsetDementia at 50. Stigma caused him to keep his diagnosis a secret at first: dementiauk.org/peters-story/ Young Dementia Network

We are saddened by the passing of our valued friend & colleague, Archie Noone. Archie's significant contribution to dementia policy & practice was recently commemorated with a Lifetime Achievement Award. Archie has left a mark on many of our lives & he will be truly missed.
