I've had so many great responses to a discussion with people with dementia and family carers on complicated language & words used in medical & social care letters & research lay summaries! My mind's buzzing. To add to our list, email c.mason3@bradford.ac.uk #keepitsimple

Many families are being stretched to their financial limits just to cover dementia care. This has to change.

"Older people have so much to offer. If society were to address old age in a more positive light, as opposed to thinking of older people as a universal burden, the benefit to us all would be enormous." Read the BGS Blog by Dr Tom Heritage.

At Cambridge, I research the historical older populations of England and Wales, using the 1851-1911 census, and behind every entry on that census is an older person with a story to tell.

We urge the Government to allocate funding to allow systems to roll out #ProactiveCare. Effective implementation of proactive care will save the NHS money in the long term as it will help older people to remain well without needing costly hospital care. https://t.co/5rIyjEI3Ys

#Frailty affects 1 in 10 over 65 y/o & up to half of 85+ y/o. These groups are most likely to benefit from #ProactiveCare. Many with frailty also live with other long-term conditions. Focus on providing holistic assessment in this guidance is very welcome. https://t.co/5rIyjEI3Ys
