Morning all. Looking forward to this.

This is incredible first hand information Keith. Thank you

Keith you are a great inspiration for those living with dementia, who want to keep busy to keep their skills active and learn new skills at the same time.

Fabulous poem Keith. So well articulated how people with dementia are too often portrayed.

Hi Keith. You are a brilliant ambassador for Alzheimer's Society and do so much to support us. What advice would you give to people with dementia who are new to giving interviews? Thanks. Sian from Alzheimer's Society.

Please would you share the link to the video…?

Great discussion - and great to highlight that ‘decline’ is not always fast, and life can be lived.

Interesting point about the impact of media - but of course the impact can be damaging if dementia is framed in a harmful way…

Love the message that you should be in charge.

If anyone affected by dementia is interested in telling their story in the media to raise awareness. Please email press@alzheimers.org.uk and the Alzheimer's Society media team will be happy to support you.

The Restaurant That Makes Mistakes series is available to watch on All 4. I highly recommend it. I was lucky enough to dine at the restaurant and meet some of the team. Incredible food and service.
