The event is happening at Metchley Manor Care Home, Edgbaston and will run from 2 pm to 4 pm.

She will be sharing information around the different types of dementia, giving an insight into how to recognise the early signs and most importantly how to respond to them. She will also talk about myth busting and how to share support in a community with no judgement.
