Forgive me for stating the obvious, but as you work for BUPA, surely they've got leaflets you can send to your sister???

Hi, i was given The Dementia Guide which has been produced by the Alzheimer's society. Have you been able to contact them as they will have a wealthy of information on dementia.

Have you also been able to log onto these websites:

dementiaaction.org.uk

alzheimers.org.uk

I hope this helps x
