Following the overwhelming response to Sally Miller 2.0, where Sally courageously shared her personal journey as a carer for her mother living with advanced Alzheimer's, The emPOWER Breakfast has announced the launch of its new Dementia Sessions series. The event is to be hosted by the fabulous team at Absolute Post in Mortimer Street on the 17th of July.
This inaugural session will feature deeply personal and practical insights from those who understand the dementia journey firsthand. Sally's father will share his lived experience as a primary carer, offering valuable tips and practical information he's gathered throughout their family's journey with Alzheimer's.
The session will be enriched by expert legal guidance from Hina Tanna, partner at Silver Levine, who will provide essential information on: inheritance tax planning, power of attorney arrangements and other critical legal considerations for families affected by dementia, including tax benefits.
The Dementia Sessions fill a crucial gap by combining real-world experience with professional expertise. Attendees will gain practical insights that can only come from those who have navigated this challenging path, alongside essential legal and financial guidance to help protect their family's interests. The emPOWER Breakfast will then move the format to an online support session where people can share their own stories and experiences.
This unique format ensures our community will receive both the emotional support through shared experiences and actionable advice they can implement immediately.
