Dementia Awareness with Clock Changes

The clocks change this autumn on Sunday 29 October and many people are getting ready to wind their clocks back to reflect this change in season.

While for the majority of people it can be a minor nuisance, the changing clocks can sometimes cause anxiety, confusion and distress in people living with dementia.

As winter mornings become darker, people with dementia may find it difficult to differentiate between 6am and 6pm, disrupting their biological clock and making it hard for them to get enough sleep.
