 ANNUAL SEMINAR MEETING 2012
Caring for people with frontotemporal dementia is hard, there are few facilities tailored for the younger sufferer and those are not always appropriate for people with frontotemporal dementia. Also there are no specific treatments yet for frontotemporal dementia. All this adds to the distress, isolation and burden of caring. The PDSG tries to decrease the burden by providing information and support.
The Pick's Disease Support Group includes:
| 1. Dementia with Lewy Bodies |
|
| 2. Frontotemporal Dementia including: |
Frontal Lobe Degeneration, Pick's Disease and Primary Progressive Aphasia |
| 3. Alcohol Related Dementia |
|
| 4. Corticobasal Degeneration |
|
The Picks Disease Support Group is under the umbrella of ‘The National Brain Appeal’ , which is the working name for The National Hospital Development Foundation. Registered Charity No. 290173
The National Brain Appeal is the charity dedicated to raising much needed funds for The National Hospital of Neurology and Neurosurgery in Queen Square London.
