Dr Jeremy Isaacs, Consultant Neurologist at St George’s and Dementia Lead for London was on @BBCRadioLondon earlier this morning along with Martin Stevens, a @TfL bus driver trained in dementia to talk about our new collaborative dementia bus stop initiative #DementiaActionWeek 
Chris and his wife Bonnie, who has dementia, visited St George's today to see the dementia bus stop. It provides a point of familiar recognition for patients feeling lost or disorientated and helps those with dementia connect with memories, creating a calm place to take a break.
A pleasure to welcome @Heidi_LDN , Deputy Mayor for Transport, and @LeonieC , London Assembly Member for Meton & Wandsworth, to St George's this morning. They paid a visit to Dalby ward to learn more about the dementia bus stop initiative #DementiaActionWeek
This #DementiaActionWeek, we're hosting #AskUsAnything takeovers with people affected by dementia, to make sure their voices are heard.
