Great to see Govt's policy announcement on prevention being better than cure Matt Hancock I recommended exactly this a month ago cityam.com/264816/comes-o…

This is a human story above all else - we need to radically change the way we view carers, empower them, help them up-skill and support them so they stay within the profession @JBeattieMirror mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…

With no cure for dementia, we need to focus our efforts on prevention and a greater understanding of risk factors - fascinating study published this week in The Lancet Neurology thelancet.com/journals/laneu… #prevention #brainhealth

“Brain health is just as important as heart health: dementia isn’t an inevitable consequence of ageing. Around one-third of Alzheimer’s disease cases may be preventable through improving lifestyle.” Great to see Matt Hancock renew the call to defeat dementia #DefeatingDementia

Less than half of people eligible for NHS health check in England have taken one - yet it’s free to everyone over 40. A check can help prevent dementia. Vital we start taking these to protect our brain health bbc.in/2VqsiFG #DementiaPrevention #NHSHealthcheck

Shocking NHS figures have revealed 90 people die each day waiting for social care. In 2017/18 there were 32,115 requests from people who later died while waiting for care. Unacceptable. We must find better solutions. bit.ly/2AoWOXK #Socialcarecrisis

Report out today that gum disease could raise the risk of getting dementia in later life. Simple lifestyle interventions such as brushing your teeth properly could help lower your risk. ind.pn/2U7FKgq #Dementiaprevention #Lifestyleintervention
