Lisa spoke about dementia and Dementia Club UK to 400 Rotarians who attended from different London clubs. There were other speakers during the weekend including the District Governor Mike Hodge who spoke before me so that he could introduce me as the next speaker.

In his speech he announced that his charity during his year was Dementia and wanted to encourage all Rotary clubs to consider setting up a dementia café especially as 2 Rotary clubs have already set up dementia cafes in partnership with Dementia Club UK.
