Alzheimer’s Society’s research shows that many people are worried about ‘saying the wrong thing’ to people living with dementia. And despite almost all of us knowing someone affected, two-thirds of people living with dementia report feeling isolated and lonely. Everyone is being encouraged to take action by starting a conversation with someone living with dementia they know; whether it’s calling a relative with dementia or visiting a neighbour, it’s time to start talking. This booklet is about how starting a conversation can make a difference to someone's life, and make someone with dementia feel included in family, friendships and their wider community.
