Allister Robertson: My Life's Journey creator on the app designed to help kiwis living with dementia

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Thursdays

More than 70,000 kiwis are currently living with dementia and this number expected to triple in the coming years. After being diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s, Allister Robertson created an app to help others in the same boat. My Life's Journey encourages users to record things from their lives with words, photos, and videos. It then prompts discussions in a therapeutic format for recalling memory. Allister told Mike Hosking that it helps him personally and that once you start, it’s never ending. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
