Alzheimer’s Society warns of hot weather for people with dementia in Manchester & gives tips on how to help them keep cool during the heatwave
- 8 months ago
Ahead of World Alzheimer's Day at the end of this month, a dementia charity is urging those with the disease to take extra care during the heatwave.
Alzheimer's Society is encouraging people with dementia and their carers to ensure those with the disease are drinking enough fluids and wearing the correct clothing as the UK is set to experience record-breaking temperatures this month.
September is World Alzheimer's Month and the international day recognising the impacts of the disease is fast approaching on September 21.
With the heat health warning upgraded to amber, Alzheimer’s Society is providing advice to help the 3,800 people across Manchester living with dementia to stay safe and hydrated during the hot spell.
The charity is encouraging people to enjoy the nice weather, while also recognising that high temperatures can lead to severe health problems for people with dementia unless they take special precautions to keep cool and well-hydrated.
