Goal
Let's make Bristol a dementia aware city!
We’ve partnered wherever we can to reach an audience with our awareness message. There’s estimated to be 5,000 people living with dementia in Bristol, with a population of 500,000 to educate about the disease, we have a long way to go but with support we will get there.

John Pops Hyde | £10.66/M
POEM FROM US LITTLE ONES... When I was small the world was tall and everyone was older. I never saw them face to face except when on Pops’ shoulder. Then one day he got quite old and didn’t make much sense He’d start to tell us something, then leave us in suspense. His words got mixed and muddled up, and sometimes none came out, I didn’t know what I’d done wrong that made him huff and shout. One day he didn’t know my name when I went round to play. Granny only said “he’s old,” and that Pops had ‘lost his way.’ I understood in later life that my Pops had dementia, I wish I’d known, I could have helped or even asked Alexa, parents, teachers, carers too, don’t think it’s complicated Just tell us what dementia is, don’t leave us uneducated?.
