Colette Cardosi, Chair of Paisley First, said: “All these business owners and their staff  have undergone Dementia Friends Training with Alzheimer’s Scotland as we work  together to make the town centre accessible for all members of our local  community. 

“So come and join us, let’s get together for a blether!” 

Dementia is not part of the natural ageing process. Dementia affects the brain,  making it harder to remember things or think as clearly as before. It’s an umbrella  term for over 100 different types of illnesses and disease symptoms. Symptoms of  dementia may include memory loss and difficulties with day to day tasks, language  and problem-solving. 

Alzheimer Scotland provides information, support and dementia-friendly activities to  help make sure nobody faces dementia alone.
