AT YOUR SERVICE - 18 JULY 2021

At Your Service

Saturday, 17 July 2021 - 31 minutes

Research has shown that we fear dementia more than we fear cancer - and we find it such a hard subject to discuss - yet most of us know a friend or family member living with the illness.  

On the programme this week, three very different but hugely positive and inspirational women share their message.  Gina Shaw was diagnosed with dementia when she was in her early 50's but she refuses to be worried or miserable - Jackie Kline is a teacher in Liverpool and she's thrilled that all the children in her school are dementia-aware, and love their weekly visits to the local care home - and Professor June Andrews is an international dementia specialist advisor with a wealth of experience gained through years of study and research, and more recently, now spends time translating the results of that research into practical help for those with dementia and their families and carers.  


June is also a committed Christian, and believes passionately that our church communities are ideally placed to offer support and understanding to people living with dementia, and those who love and care for them.  


June, Gina and Jackie will each share their thoughts, experiences -  and their positivity - as we're all AT YOUR SERVICE today.  

 
There's some great music too - and a packed notice board!


Items for the notice board, and your hymn choices for future programmes, can all be emailed to me - judithley@manxradio.com
