Lack of Services for those living with dementia

Many people in County Durham are saying that their are a total lack of services for those living with Dementia and their carers, where years ago there were lots of things going on under the Alzheimer's Society.


It seems that a lot of these local services have disappeared now, and as someone said the other day all local calls seem to be diverted to London, rather than being dealt with locally, even the old Society Office is boarded up


In years gone by the local office had ran lots of services for those living with the illness, and their carers but now they are left to find a smaller locally based charity for support and help, otherwise they are left in their own without support


This is so sad as the Alzhimers Society claims to be their to help and support all going through this journey lining with dementia in the UK, or caring for those living with the illness.


There are not many charities in this area supporting thise with the illness, something which is a vital service, one which could help people to live a more active and better life while going through this journey




 Thank you for the voice activated software, which allowed me to carry in writing this as and when I can
