 The second ‘forget–me–not’ walk takes place on Sunday 11 September 2011 at Whitlingham Great Broad. The three–mile ramble organised by Norfolk Admirals aims to raise awareness of dementia and its impact on sufferers, carers and families.
The money raised will also help to kick–start an Admiral Nurse service in Norfolk and Waveney.
Walkers are asked to arrive at the Whitlingham Visitor Centre by 9.30am for a 10am start of a gentle walk around Whitlingham Great Broad.

Elderly care bill ‘should be capped at £35,000’

Elderly care bill ‘should be capped at £35,000’

Andrew Dilnot explains how a cap on care costs would work

An official inquiry will recommend that the bill elderly people in England have to pay for care should be capped at £35,000, the BBC understands.

The proposal could stop thousands of people having to sell their house or lose all their savings, says the BBC’s political editor Nick Robinson.

The details will come in the report of the Commission on Funding of Care and Support in England on Monday.
