Remember the person - Dementia Awareness Week 2010

In this film Phillip, who lives with dementia, talks about his life as a tailor and pole vault champion, and the hobbies he continues to enjoy today.

This film is part of Alzheimer's Society's Remember the person campaign, which asks people to think about the individuals living with dementia and not just the diagnosis. Alzheimer's Society is asking people to think about the people they know living with dementia and about the simple things they can do to make life for them more manageable and enjoyable.

Dementia Awareness Week is taking place in England and Wales between 4 - 10 July 2010 and in Northern Ireland from 13 - 19 June 2010.

For more information on this year's campaign, please visit http://www.alzheimers.org.uk/remember...

There are more than 750,000 people in the UK affected by dementia with numbers set to rise to 1 million by 2025.

Alzheimer's Society is the UK's leading care and research charity for people with dementia and those who care for them.

Support the fight against dementia.
