The roadshow is intended to provide people with the information they need to understand their diagnosis and make the most of living with dementia. There will be a welcome and overview from a local GP and you will receive a specialist's guide to medication and treatment. There will be talks on managing your legal affairs and a practical session focusing on memory techniques and tips. Experts will be on hand to answer any of your questions and there will be a range of stalls featuring information which is available from local organisations, including support aimed at carers. You will also be able to view a new DVD, featuring local people with dementia and their partners talking about their diagnosis and living well with dementia.
