            Mental health is a level of psychological well-being or an absence of mental illness. It is the \u201cpsychological state of someone who is functioning at a satisfactory level of emotional and behavioural adjustment.\u201d<\/p>\n

            What is dementia?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

            The word \u2018dementia\u2019 describes a set of symptoms that may include memory loss and difficulties with thinking, problem-solving or language. These changes are often small to start with, but for someone with dementia, they have become severe enough to affect daily life. A person with dementia may also experience changes in their mood or behaviour.<\/p>\n

            A learning disability is a reduced intellectual ability and difficulty with everyday activities \u2013 for\u00a0example, household tasks, socialising or managing money \u2013 which affects someone for their whole\u00a0life.<\/p>\n
