Thank you to those constituents who have recently contacted
me as part of the Alzheimer's Society's Fix Dementia Care Campaign: Write to
the Chancellor.
I have my own personal story that my family is working
through at present with my father so I am aware of the challenges that both
Dementia sufferers and carers face on a daily basis.
As a Parliamentary Private Secretary for the Department of
Health and Social Care I am unable to lobby the Government in the manner
requested.
However I am pleased to confirm that the concerns raised
will be part of the Government’s social care plan that we are bringing forward
by the end of this year. I will certainly ensure I raise this issue with the
Minister as part of the work on this important plan.
