About this listen

 This is a podcast that will help you navigate the complexities of dementia. It’s presented by two friends who come at the subject from two very different perspectives.

Professor Julie Williams has spent most of her working life trying to understand Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. Meanwhile, Justine Pickering understands the colossal human cost all too well. She lost her mum to a rare form of young-onset dementia before founding a unique respite project for families coping with the emotional toll of the disease.

In Two Minds brings you the highs and lows of the shared experiences of dementia. We’ll hear inspiring special guests and all about current research and future treatments.

Together, we’ll explore the challenges of coping with this disease and how to live well following diagnosis.Justine Pickering and Professor Julie Williams Hygiene & Healthy Living Psychology Psychology & Mental Health Science
