As a 30-something year old living in Lancashire in the North West of England, Beth has been living with the impact of her mum's diagnosis of early onset FTD (Frontotemporal Dementia) at the age of 65.
For the last year she's been sitting down with a friend and a microphone to go over everything that's happened along the way. Loving someone with FTD is a club nobody wants to be a part of but Beth hopes that talking about it and sharing experiences helps others to feel less alone.
This isn’t meant to be a shiny podcast that gives you all the answers.
For a lot of us, the answers don’t exist - we’re just getting on the best we can.

Beth is back for Series 2 of the podcast and this time she’s been sitting down to talk to other people who’ve found their lives being affected by dementia, in whatever way, to chat about their experiences and to try to learn as much as possible about this illness…
This week she is joined by Lukas Olszewski whose ex-partner was diagnosed with Frontotemporal Dementia at just 36.
