Lovely project by Salfordโ€™s own @DancingwithDem2. The charity has been donating dolls to care home residents in Salford living with dementia The dolls have had a calming effect for residents and have helped with feelings of isolation and loneliness. salfordnow.co.uk/2020/12/01/โ€ฆ

Captain Tom has lent his support to Cadbury & Age UK to get people to donate their words to a lonely older person. Because when you donate your words, who knows what words youโ€™ll get back. Share any stories you discover with #DonateYourWords

The impact of COVID has been shattering for families affected by dementia. Urgent action must be taken to protect people ahead of the winter. Stand with people like Gordon and Sue, send a message to Government to make them address the reality of lockdown: bit.ly/2G0dzic

Great to see the wonderful Lesley from @DancingwithDem2 helping to spread the word about the importance of getting your flu jab. ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
If youโ€™re aged 65 and over, pregnant or have a long-term health condition youโ€™re more vulnerable to serious side effects of flu. Your GP or midwife will offer you a free flu jab. Please take it up and get your family/friends to do the same for the NHS. #COVID-19 #SpiritOfSalford
