Efforts are underway to make the Isle of Man a dementia friendly nation:
The Alzheimer's Society has marked Dementia Awareness Week this week - events included opening a new till at Tesco which gives people with a memory problem more time.

Police officers are among those who've been briefed - Susan Walker is from the society and explains why:
