This month is World Alzheimer’s Month, with World Alzheimer’s Day taking place on the 21st of September.

More than 55,000 people in Ireland are living with dementia.

To mark the month, Bluebird Care, in partnership with Dunnes Stores, is bringing its Dementia Bus to Ennis today.

The Dementia Bus – a first-of-its-kind virtual simulator, lets people experience the disorientation and memory loss that those with dementia face daily.

To find out more, Alan Morrissey was joined by Office Manager, Theresa Sexton.
