DEMENTIA ACTION WEEK 2026
It was wonderful to see local author Michael Booth at The Salaam Community Centre during Dementia Action Week 2026 as part of his Hartlepool book tour for Forget Me Not: The Letter in the Headboard.
Lesley-Anne from Pool Together enjoyed catching up with Michael and hearing more about the inspiration behind his powerful and thought-provoking novel, which shines a light on dementia, memory, and the importance of human connection.
The event brought together members of the community, local organisations, and supporters to help raise awareness and encourage important conversations around dementia.
Michael’s book Forget Me Not: The Letter in the Headboard is available now on Amazon.
