Positive Meeting at st Andrews House Today

Hi

I have just returned home from Edinburgh and my meeting with civil servants who work on dementia and strategies, and feel it was a very positive and encouraging meeting
It really feels like this little campaign collecting life stories and raising awareness is moving in the right direction, our life stories and experiences are being read and listened to
So thank you to everyone who supports this and thank you to the DFM and the team I met with today for their ongoing interest in our feelings our words and our life’s
I feel today was another step forward in bringing more understanding on dementia and caring, and as long as we keep moving forward then that’s a good thing
We parted company today on a positive note and will be back in touch soon to work on some ideas from today’s meeting
Campaigning as with caring has good days and bad days today felt like a good day

Keep the letters coming they are  helping  
Tommy
