You Can't Ask That!

Seven Dementia Advocates were filmed as part of the latest ABC series of You Can't Ask That in an episode dedicated to the experiences of people living with dementia. A number of other Advocates were also interviewed off screen to help inform the episode.

The series asks outrageous, uncomfortable and shocking questions to uncover the truth behind some of the most marginalised and misunderstood Australians, which, in this series, includes people living with dementia.

Thank you to Steve Coleman, Val Schache, Theresa Flavin, Gwenda Darling, Kevyn Morris, Sarah Ashton, Russell Martin and other off-screen Advocates who generously, graciously, and with humour and courage, shared their stories and experiences.

The episode about dementia aired on 13 July on ABC and you can watch it on ABC iView.
