Dementia is a progressive neurological condition, not a mental illness or a natural process of aging. It can happen at any stage in life. There are around 200 known true dementias, around 20 of which can occur in childhood. Each one of us is a person, not a disease.

This week is #carersweek - an annual campaign to raise awareness of caring. My husband's mother has lived with us for nearly 7yrs, and my husband does an amazing job of supporting and caring for her. Thinking of all those who lovingly support and care for other people.

Imagine if anyone could be a priest, man, woman, LGBTQ+ and offer Communion to anyone who wanted it, all able to receive. Wouldn't that be wonderful! Why do we put up barriers to being one body in Christ.

Thank you Justin Madders for yesterday's Westminster Hall Debate on digital exclusion and raising that many people will never be online so need offline options. Thank you to the many MPs who attended and spoke. It's great to see this important issue get the attention it needs.

End the Carers Allowance cliff-edge! Many reporting the scandal that those caring 35+hrs/wk oft for vulnerable loved ones must repay £1,000s just for slipping a quid or two over the max earnings threshold (currently £151/wk). Ending that clawback's important. Yet the cliff-edge
