I'm taking part in the November Knitting Challenge to support families facing dementia. Dementia UK is the specialist dementia nurse charity.

I know people who now have Dementia and seen the effect this has on those people that are close to them.

I will be knitting everyday in November and hope you can support me in any little way you can.

Our nurses, called Admiral Nurses, provide life-changing care to families affected by all forms of dementia, including Alzheimers disease. They help people with dementia stay independent for longer, and support the people caring for them so they have the strength to cope with the bad days, and the energy to enjoy the good days. They have the time to listen and the knowledge to solve problems, helping families take back control when they are struggling.
