A 17-year-old from Downpatrick who has experienced the devastating impact of dementia first-hand is paying tribute to her grandmother who was everyone's "best friend".
Shona Gardiner will be putting her best foot forward next weekend as she is set to join hundreds of others who are going through the same thing as her family at the Alzheimer’s Society Belfast Memory Walk.
She will be heading to the Stormont Estate in memory of her granny, Pauline Gardiner, whose dementia contributed to her death on 25 November last year, aged 80.
