Dementia UK has just published five new leaflets to support people receiving a diagnosis of dementia. Written by their team of Admiral Nurses, they cover the following topics: The emotional impact of receiving a diagnosis, how roles and relationships might change, dealing with stigma, staying healthy, dementia and driving.

The new leaflets and many others covering a broad range of topics can be downloaded from their website. Type the name of the leaflet in the search box on their website.

Why not fundraise to enable them to recruit and provide specialist nurses during October? See ‘Raise your game’ on the website.
