Increase funding for dementia and Alzheimers

What the petition asks
Increase the spending on dementia and Alzheimer’s because they receive a fraction of the spending on cancer and other care and are potentially far more debilitating.
I had one parent who died from cancer and was given first class care. My father now has end stage dementia and virtually no help is available. Everyone appears to run away from it!
