The University of Liverpool are looking for help with their research.

If you are a carer for someone who this happened to, would you have time to take part in a research interview?

This Carers Week, Lewy Body Society ambassador Karen Young shares her experience of becoming a carer for her husband Alan, a former chartered civil engineer. We think her thoughts will resonate with a lot of people.

Today is the first day of Carers Week 2025.

Near 2 months into caring for my MIL who has #dementia, 3 weeks after leaving my job to do it. Yes, she’s being looked after, but it is all consuming and headspace is hard to come by. Meeting about support next week. How do other #DementiaCarers get by on this? #Alzheimers #VascularDementia
