There's a little less than 24hrs to contribute to our crowdfund for the audio drama "Harry's Home".

While hitting our target would be amazing (but now not possible), another £1k will allow us to record the script, whilst we secure funding for the post production.

We are increasingly reading and hearing more and more about Dementia and Alzheimer's disease and the impact it's having on families and friends. While some forms are genetic, most are lifestyle based. Not everybody will develop dementia. But many people will, and it's often hard to acknowledge that one day it might affect you, directly or indirectly.

"Harry's Home" isn't really about Dementia and Alzheimer's disease. It's about his family - and that's something many of us can relate to.

This audio drama promotes understanding and empathy. It's not being made to scare or preach. But if we CAN make it, we really think it'll make a big difference to those who hear it.

Visit the link below and take a look at some of the support tiers available, including "Remember Me" credits.

Someone in the world develops Dementia every 3 seconds.

One of the best ways you can reduce your risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease or Dementia is by engaging in healthy behaviours, both mentally and physically.

We’re currently raising money to produce the audio play “Harry’s Home” - a gently funny and emotional audio play touching upon the day-to-day reality of dementia.

Your support - however modest - would be invaluable to enable us to produce “Harry’s Home” and the completed audio drama will be offered free to Dementia and Alzheimer’s charities to help raise public awareness of this life-changing condition.

If you can help in any way please visit https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/harry-s-home-an-audio-drama #/ to pledge your support.
