Four years ago Davie McElhinney was living a normal family life and working as a chef in a very busy kitchen, but at just 53 he received the diagnosis that he had dementia. In this conversation with presenter Audrey Carville, he talks about his determination not to be defined by the disease.

Audrey also discusses the search for a cure with Professor Tara Spires-Jones from the Centre for Discovery Brain Sciences at the University of Edinburgh, finds out about the support locally from Tara Collins of Dementia NI and learns from Lindsay Conway how the Presbyterian Church's care homes have evolved to meet the needs of dementia residents.
