Friday, and another interesting stint at
the Ferndale Baptist Church night shelter. This week there was an increase in
the number of guests eating and staying, and my four hours there were a busy

| Southend Labour becoming dementia friends |
Amongst those that I spoke with was a
twenty year old who had been living on the streets since the age of
twelve. His story was equally touching and
scary. The thought of such a young person sleeping rough is difficult to
imagine.
Today I attended a dementia awareness
event organized for Southend Labour by Ashleigh Condon. Becoming a dementia friend is important,
especially as so m any of us are affected at some by this disease.
I also ended up doing a spot of
leafleting in Milton, on the equally important subject of the NHS.
