Care Show London is delighted to announce that renowned broadcaster and producer Anna Richardson will be speaking at this year’s event. Anna will take part in a highly anticipated session titled ‘Exploring Dementia: A Fireside Chat with Anna Richardson’ at 12:35 pm in the Keynote Theatre on 30 April 2025. The session is proudly supported by the Alzheimer’s Society. 

Anna will be interviewed by Tim Baverstock, Head of Local Systems Influencing at Alzheimer’s Society. Together, they will explore the personal and societal impact of dementia, drawing on Anna’s own experiences and her work in raising awareness around the condition. 

Anna is best known for her career-launching role as a journalist on The Big Breakfast, Channel 4’s most successful breakfast show. Over the years, she has become a household name, combining her skills in broadcasting and production to create some of television’s most popular and thought-provoking formats. 

Her involvement with dementia awareness is deeply personal. Anna fronted the powerful Channel 4 documentary ‘Anna Richardson: Love, Loss and Dementia’ in partnership with Alzheimer’s Society. The documentary explored the struggles faced by people living with dementia, including Anna’s own father’s battle with vascular dementia. It tackled difficult truths, challenged social taboos, and sparked important conversations about the future of dementia care. 

This fireside chat promises to be a moving and insightful session, offering attendees a unique opportunity to hear Anna’s honest reflections on her journey with dementia and the lessons she has learned along the way. 

Care Show London 2025 is anticipated to be the biggest celebration of the care sector in the capital for the second year in a row! It has proved to be a platform for learning, networking, and inspiration. Join this session with Anna Richardson and gain valuable insights into the realities of dementia care.
