Cassandra Welford, author of I've Lost My Mum, will appear on BBC Morning Live on the 5th March as part of their national dementia conversation.

Cassandra wrote her memoir following her mother’s journey with Alzheimer’s. Since its publication in 2019, the book has been described as a “lifeline,” used in care home training and placed in an NHS teaching hospital library.

She has previously spoken at the National Dementia Congress and Health Education England, and continues to advocate for families navigating dementia.

Cassandra said: “My mum, who sadly passed away from Alzheimer's disease in 2020, always used to say, ‘If you can help just one person, you should.’

"Speaking on BBC Morning Live feels like continuing her legacy by helping others to navigate this devastating journey.”
