In this month's Dementia together magazine, we talk NHS-funded nursing care - and answer: - What is ‘nursing care’? - How much is funded by the NHS? - How does this affect home fees? - How can I check these costs? Find out more at: bit.ly/3fwry0U.

Lots of useful advice there @latcham_d Hopefully you were able to provide some reassurance and guidance to people in Oswestry yesterday #dementia

I've spoken lots today to people worried about memory loss. Not all memory loss is #dementia but if you have concerns the @alzheimerssoc symptom checklist might help. See link below - developed with leading clinicians to support diagnosis process alzheimers.org.uk/about-dementia…

People have continued to sign up to keep free lateral flow tests for care home visits. No one should have to pay for the privilege of safely visiting their loved one in a care home. If you think so too visit @alzheimerssoc campaign (deadline extended) - alzheimers.org.uk/keeptestsfree

Thank you for the overwhelming support for our campaign to keep lateral flow tests free for care home visitors. If you'd like to join the 11,445 supporters who've contacted their MPs, the campaign is open until Thursday 31 March: bit.ly/3qbb4NM.

Thanks so much @jimallthetime @BBCShropshire for allowing me the time just now to raise the issues that new charges for Lateral Flow Tests bring for those visiting loved ones in care homes. Anyone can join the @alzheimerssoc campaign to help change this: alzheimers.org.uk/keeptestsfree

"That person hasn't changed, that person is still there" Great to see Danny on @bbcmtd last night. I helped this couple with @Alz_Soc_Media to share their musical adventure. Really warming to show how those with dementia can still do the things they love! "Good on you Danny!"
