Dementia Action Week, 18th–24th May

Dementia is the UK's biggest killer and is caused by different diseases that damage the brain and get worse over time. The symptoms include:

• memory loss
• confusion and needing help with daily tasks
• problems with language and understanding
• changes in behaviour
Dementia Action Week is an awareness campaign which brings people and organisations together to raise awareness and hope for quicker diagnosis and better treatments in the future. Everyone is encouraged to wear the forget-me-not badge and share the stories that lie behind the flower badge, of lives devastated by dementia.

New parents can find themselves overwhelmed with information from multiple sources about weaning their baby onto solid foods alongside milk, but the information is often conflicting and not always helpful when trying to make a decision.

National Weaning Week aims to provide families with support, advice and help around weaning. There are lots of ways to get involved, on social media, by talking to other parents, trying out a new recipe or joining a workshop. Find out more visit: https://www.nhs.uk/best-start-in-life/baby/weaning/

May is World Allergy and Asthma awareness month.
Having a personalised asthma action plan can help you stay in control of your symptoms and know exactly what to do if they change. It is a written plan agreed with your healthcare professional that explains your daily treatment, how to recognise worsening symptoms and what steps to take in an emergency.
A good asthma action plan can help you:
• Understand your triggers and how to avoid them 🍃⚠️
• Take the right medication at the right time 💊🩺
• Spot early warning signs of an asthma attack 👀
• Know when to seek urgent medical help ⏱️🚑
Keeping your plan up to date and easy to access can give you confidence and help prevent serious asthma attacks.

Stroke can be devastating, and can happen to anyone, of any age, at any time. The faster you call 999 and get treatment, the better the chances of survival and recovery, so it's vital to know how to spot the signs of a stroke, which you can see here: https://www.stroke.org.uk/stroke/symptoms

Stroke Association is asking everyone to ‘Make May Purple’, so they can fund research and support more people affected by stroke. You can organise a ‘purple event’, or join their ‘31 Minutes in May’ campaign and pledge to exercise for 31 minutes a day. Find more fundraising ideas, resources and stroke information on their website: https://www.stroke.org.uk/stroke-awareness-month
