Description
Three stories of people who have found themselves giving or receiving care. Including 26-year-old Hannah who was recently diagnosed with FND, in conversation with her mum Alison - about the wide-ranging impact of the disorder on relationships, work and hobbies. And the importance of celebrating the small wins. And Nina from Essex, who last year volunteered at a care home in order to see her dad Roger during the first national lockdown, and shared their journey with dementia with an online community. Plus radio producer Bob, on returning to university in his mid-40s to train as a nurse, during a global pandemic. Multi Story is presented and produced by Becca Bryers. With thanks to BBC Essex and BBC Radio Solent.
