Health

Dementia

A

round 800,000 people in the UK have dementia.

The word dementia describes a set of symptoms which include memory loss, and difficulty with thinking, problem solving and language. These symptoms can sometimes be caused by other things however, so it’s important to get a diagnosis as soon as possible. Your GP may refer you to a specialist consultant. Assessments are likely to include conversations with you and your loved ones, a physical examination, memory tests and/or a brain scan. Dementia is caused when the brain is damaged by diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease or a series of strokes. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common type of dementia, affecting 62 per cent of those diagnosed. Other types include vascular dementia affecting 17 per cent, and mixed dementia which affects 10 per cent of those diagnosed. 4

Those with dementia may be given medicines to help with symptoms and slow down progression, but as yet there is no cure. Some sufferers also attend day centres and support groups. Carers can get help from local Carers Groups, Social Services and Dementia UK’s Admiral Nurses. These nurses specialise in dementia and provide practical and emotional support as well as information to families, friends and professionals. Dementia UK is a charity. In addition to Admiral Nurses it also provides a national helpline and email service. One of the other major organisations in this field is the Alzheimer’s Society. This is a membership organisation which provides local support services, including day care and home care and befriending and support for families and partners of those with dementia. They also provide fact sheets and publications and have a helpline and an online forum called talking point. In addition, the Alzheimer’s Society fund research, provide training and development and campaign to raise awareness. One of their recent initiatives is Dementia Friends. You may have seen the television adverts for this which included lots of celebrity support. Anyone can become a Dementia Friend. I did in just over

10 minutes! This campaign is all about increasing understanding about dementia, and educating people so that they can help those with the condition. Dementia Friends learn a little bit about what it’s like to have dementia and then turn this understanding into action. This could include helping someone get on the correct bus, or being patient if someone with dementia is taking a long time to find the right change when paying for their goods at a till. To become a friend you watch a short video on the website then register or attend a local information session.

Health

Hands & Feet Exfoliation follows next. Glycolic exfoliation, which involves the application of glycolic acid in cream or gel form, dissolves and removes dead and damaged skin cells. In the case of feet, you may also get the soles pumiced, particularly on the heels and ball of the foot, to remove dead or hard skin. A nourishing massage of the hand, wrist and lower arm or the foot, ankle and lower leg, brings this stage of the manicure or pedicure to an end.

T

he hands and feet probably get used more than any other part of the body, and consequently hands often become dry, rough and chapped and feet calloused and tough. As they serve us so well, they deserve a bit of pampering and tender loving care to keep them in tip-top shape. As a rule of thumb, whatever is done to your hands can be done to your feet, and a good starting point is to have a regular manicure or pedicure. Typically, a spa manicure or pedicure will start with a soak to soften the nails and skin, but if you want to give your hands and feet a real treat, why not try a paraffin wax treatment? Hands or feet are submerged for a few seconds in a warm mixture of melted paraffin and mineral oil. As they are removed the wax hardens slightly, and they are then dipped in the mixture again and the process repeated three to six times. A thick layer of wax eventually forms which is left to dry for 10-15 minutes, often with mittens or booties on top, after which the wax is peeled or rubbed away. This treatment softens rough skin and leaves hands and feet feeling beautifully silky smooth.

As a finishing touch the nails are then shaped, the cuticles trimmed, and nail polish applied. In recent years, gel polish has grown in popularity. Manufacturers boast that the finish can remain flawless and chip-free for up to 14 days and with a zero drying time and no damage to the nail, it’s easy to understand why it’s often the first choice. Nail art is on the increase and is high profile in the fashion world and amongst celebrities. It’s a great way to express individuality, fashion savvy, creativity and humour. Nail art involves painting and gluing designs and jewels onto nails to create a myriad of exciting and fun looks, but it does require skill and a lot of time. An easier and quicker option is to have nail wraps. Made from vinyl adhesive, a detailed design can be applied in a fraction of the time – and looks almost as good.

Putting Your Family In Safe Hands

M

aking the decision that your relationship has come to an end is never easy. Working out what is best for your children can be even harder; emotions are running high and all you want is to protect those you love the most.

The Government is now putting more emphasis on parents reaching amicable agreements with one another outside of the Courts. If you and your former partner/ spouse are unable to discuss matters directly with one another then mediation or assistance via solicitors may provide you with the guidance and support you need to reach an agreement which is in the children’s best interests, both in the short and long term.

There is no right or wrong way to agree the future care arrangements for children; it really depends on how your family works. The law emphasises safeguarding the welfare of the children and ensuring that their emotional, physical and educational needs are met. These factors must be at the forefront of your mind when entering into discussions to determine the future care arrangements.

At Gullands Solicitors we can offer the very niche service of lawyer-led mediation and thus you will benefit from the support and assistance of a mediator who is also a highly qualified family lawyer and who can provide you with relevant legal information and guide you in the right direction when trying to work with your former partner or family member in resolving a dispute.

At Gullands Solicitors, our specialist family team offers expert legal advice and representation as well as mediation services. Family mediation is very successful in resolving a wide variety of disputes; in fact in recent years over two thirds of separating couples who engaged in mediation reached amicable agreements and thus avoided the need for highly stressful and costly court proceedings. The result of this is also that those who engaged in mediation were able to walk away with a real sense of empowerment as they have been able to remain in control of any decisions which may affect their future.

Whether you want to try mediation or instruct a solicitor and obtain legal advice and assistance, we at Gullands can provide you with all the support you require. Gail Brooks is a solicitor and mediator at Gullands Solicitors and can be reached at T: 01622 689753 or g.brooks@gullands.com www.gullands.com
