Dementia, also known as senility, is a broad category of brain diseases that cause a long term and often gradual decrease in the ability to think and remember that is great enough to affect a person's daily functioning. Other common symptoms include emotional problems, problems with language, and a decrease in motivation. A person's consciousness is usually not affected. A dementia diagnosis requires a change from a person's usual mental functioning and a greater decline than one would expect due to aging. These diseases also have a significant effect on a person's caregivers.
In this film, four people with dementia share their insights and experiences of living with advancing dementia. See SCIE's dementia resources: https://www.scie.org.uk/dementia/
Staying active and eating well matter greatly and can help a person live well with dementia. Behaviour, learning disability and sensory loss all have an impact.

What is dementia?
Dementia is the name for a group of symptoms that commonly include problems with memory, thinking, problem solving, language and perception. In a person with dementia, these symptoms are bad enough to affect daily life.
Dementia is not a disease in its own right, and it is not a natural part of ageing. Rather, the symptoms of dementia are caused by different diseases that affect the brain, including Alzheimer’s disease.
Dementia is caused by loss of nerve cells. It is a progressive condition, meaning that symptoms gradually get worse. This is because when a nerve cell dies, it cannot usually be replaced. As more and more cells die, the brain starts to shrink.

What is vascular dementia?
Vascular dementia is the second most common type of dementia. It is caused by problems with the blood supply to the brain. Nerve cells require oxygen and nutrients to survive. Without them, they will become damaged or die.
Cells are provided with these oxygen and nutrients by a network of blood vessels in the brain. When the blood supply to the brain is interrupted, for example by a sudden blockage or a leak, this is called a stroke. A stroke can cause significant damage to parts of the brain.
When the parts of the brain responsible for memory, thinking or language are damaged in this way, a person will have difficulty remembering things, thinking or speaking. These are all symptoms of vascular dementia.
