Show Notes

Two vital dementia day care centers in Leicestershire face closure due to funding uncertainty, threatening a crucial support system for carers and patients. The centers, run by Age UK, need £79,000 annually from the local health service. The health board is under financial strain, and the grant hasnt increased in eight years. Losing these centers could lead to more patients needing expensive full-time care, with local MPs and staff advocating for their survival.
