A dementia roadshow is coming to Kerry tomorrow.

As part of Alzheimer's Awareness Month, Bluebird Care has teamed up with Dunnes Stores to open the healthcare provider's training simulator to the public.

It says its mobile simulator is scientifically proven to help those with a healthy brain understand what it’s like to live with dementia.
