Minibus for Magnolia House

Donation protected
Hi there for those who know me you will know my husband Jim has Dementia, He is 53. After serving in the Royal Navy for 33 years and thinking it was a new chapter in his life beginning he was diagnosed with CBD a horrible form of Dementia. Magnolia House here in Yeovil have been a great support to us but its limited due to the fact they have no facilities to cater for younger people with Dementia. I thought like so many others that dementia was an an illness that old people sadly got, this is not the case many young people have this disease and like Jim struggle to find the support and help that is given to people who are in their later years.
Having spoken with Magnolia House to find out what would help them to give better care to younger dementia sufferers I was informed that a Mini Bus would be a godsend. It would give them the opportunity to do more for younger people as their facility in Yeovil really does only cater for elderly patients.
So I want to help.
 I am experiencing the anguish caused by this horrible disease, I see the struggle of a  man losing the ability to cope with daily life when he should be in his prime, I see first hand the confusion, the fear, the feelings of inadequacy of someone who is having  to rely on others to wash, dress and feed them and not understanding why they can no longer do it themselves.
Dementia is a horrible disease,  there is no cure. 
If this mini bus can help make the lives of these younger dementia suffers even a tiny bit better for a few hours or days  then any pound you give is worth it dont you think?
Please give, lets get Magnolia House this Mini Bus that "god send" they would love to have. Help them do more for people who really do need it.
Please share with your friends and family and ask them to do the same any donations will be welcome.
Thanks
