In this podcast episode, Melanie Blanksby, our acting chief executive, speaks to Rebecca Fuller, The Archers’ Beth Casey, about her family’s experience of dementia.

This Lunch & Listen session was dedicated to National Poetry day. Rebecca reads her poem about her grandad ‘My grandad is a little bit different’. She also shares her feelings about her grandad and the role he played in her life.

We discuss what it means to “see the person and not the dementia”, why this is important and the reality of this.
