title: Let's dance.
abstract: I was particularly heartened by the launch of the 'Living Well' campaign to raise awareness of dementia (Nursing Older People. 22, 3, 4). Of course the news stories emphasised the negative findings of the research, that is, people in general avoid people with dementia and do not know how to help them. But the campaign was launched at a dance and the national clinical director for dementia Alistair Burns says dancing is good for you. This is sensible advice from a true leader. We need to send this message across the world.
