A life long career in RF design has led to the accumulation of a considerable amount of test equipment in my shack, shed, living room etc etc...  When dementia struck it became obvious that it was controlling me rather than me controlling it so it has to go.

The dementia I have is PCA (Posterior Cortical Atrophy - the same as Terry Pratchett) which is less common than classical Alzheimers and has significantly different symptoms.  There is less support for it hence my support of the campaign  

The National Brain Appeal's campaign to establish the world's first Centre for Rare Dementia Support.The National Brain Appeal has supported Rare Dementia Support (RDS) since the first meetings in 1994. RDS runs regular, specialist support groups, in London and regionally, provides newsletters, contact networks and an digital platform with access to information and advice for people living with or at risk of inherited, atypical and young onset dementias. Our vision is to support all these people by substantially expanding RDS.Please help The National Brain Appeal reach the first £250,000 towards this campaign to create the world's first centre of excellence for rarer dementias.The Rare Dementia Support Centre will exemplify how best to support those living with a rare dementia, through the involvement of its members and visitors in research and will lead in the bespoke education of families, healthcare and other relevant professionals.
