Jonathan Beardsworth has a message of hope for people living with Young Onset Dementia. With the right care and support, you can continue to do the things you love.
For him, that is playing guitar – and the North Yorkshire musician and retired music industry executive is releasing a single today, inspired by his personal experience of the condition. Jonathan, who received a diagnosis aged 62, has collaborated with Yorkshire singer songwriter Scott Quinn to create ‘U&ME’ - a single that aims to raise awareness of the growing number of young people facing the devastating impact of the condition.
The campaign focuses on a 10-year plan to raise awareness of young onset dementia, and help people living with the condition keep doing what they love for as long as possible and deliver specialist, age-appropriate care and supporting Yorkshire, a model which the charity hopes will be replicated by service providers across the country. 'I hope the single makes people sit up and look,” says Dementia Forward Founder and CEO Jill Quinn.
