AnnotationNow that people with a learning disability live longer, more of them are developing dementia. In planning the services they need, an important first step is to ask them what they think. The authors discuss their findings from work with focus groups, which look in particular at attitudes to growing older, and the experiences, knowledge and concerns around dementia. (RH).
