While dementia isn’t curable yet, the care system is. That's why I have signed Alzheimer's Society petition - you can too! #CureTheCareSystem action.alzheimers.org.uk/page/80202/pet…

Until things change, a dementia diagnosis will continue to claim more than one life, as families facing dementia feel its destructive effects. Sign our petition urging governments to cure the care system now: bit.ly/3ydEpJC #CureTheCareSystem #DAW2021
