Petition To introduce an annual dementia screening test for everyone over the age of 45.

Dementia is the major cause of death in England and Wales and, due to the aging population and more awareness of this disease, is set to become the UK's biggest killer. Earlier diagnosis and treatment can slow down the disease and help to improve the sufferer's quality of life.
