42% of people with dementia feel ashamed or stigmatised because of their symptoms.

Negative attitudes towards people living with dementia can lead to unfair treatment, make it harder to seek diagnosis and support, and affect everyday life.

People affected by dementia shared their experiences of stigma and how it has affected them:

'I'm treated as though nothing I have to say about myself would be taken into account.'

'On the train, a woman refused to move when I asked, stating "I'm not moving. You look younger than me. You don't look disabled."'

'People don't believe me when I tell them my husband has dementia, as he is 60 and physically fit.'

'You see people looking, and I know they're thinking "What's wrong with her?"'

'There seems to be so much stigma around dementia, but with the ageing population, a lot more people are going to get it.'

Have you experienced stigma around dementia?

Thank you to all the volunteers ( and driver!) from Flintham Museum. A good time had by all!
