Dementia, including a dementia diagnosis target, has been removed from the NHS Operational Planning Guidance. This is a step backwards and sends the message that dementia doesn't matter. #DementiaDeservesDiagnosis

It’s unacceptable that dementia, including a diagnosis target, has been removed from @NHSEngland planning guidance. We need to #MakeDementiaAPriority and that starts with diagnosis. Join @alzheimerssoc as a campaigner today if you agree: action.alzheimers.org.uk/page/141326/da…

🚨 Breaking news The new @NHSEngland planning guidance published today contains nothing on dementia. Like you, we think that’s unacceptable. Dementia is a priority. Diagnosis is a priority. We cannot ignore the UK's biggest killer anymore. #DementiaDeservesDiagnosis
