Neil Sehmbhy, Strategic Director of the Penguin's Head, told a local newspaper how reading can help to improve the quality of life for someone with Alzheimer's Disease. "Many people who were literate in their lives and had a passion for books maintain their ability to read until the end-stages of dementia". You can read the full article and Neil's interview here.
Personally, I'm very proud to have been involved with this project, and with the chosen charity. Two close family members both contracted Alzheimer's Disease, so I've seen first hand what its effects can be; and I hope that the anthology, when published, will be very successful in aid of this cause. I'll keep you posted on the progress of the book, and would be very grateful if you would share it as widely as possible once released. Keep watching this space...
