Dr Sam Moxon, narrates his blog written for Dementia Researcher.
In this blog Sam examines the hidden challenges faced by people living with dementia during the cold, isolating months of winter. Drawing from personal experiences and expert insights, the blog explores the increased risks, from slips and falls to disrupted sleep and social isolation. But more importantly, it emphasises the power of compassion, connection, and understanding to ease the burden on those affected. A must-read or listen for anyone seeking to support loved ones navigating the unique difficulties of dementia in wintertime.
