| Annotation | Meri Yaadain (My Memories) is a nationally recognised initiative run by Bradford. Council's Department of Adult and Community Services. This booklet looks at some of the issues facing South Asian carers, and factors affecting how South Asian communities can interact with outside agencies. It also looks at how black and minority ethnic (BME) carers view statutory service providers, and the difficulties or barriers experienced by BME carers of people with dementia. Support services can help carers from South Asian families in providing access to services, and also acknowledge their cultural differences (traditions, rituals, customs, food, diet and religious obligations).
