Reducing stigma starts with the words we use, and shifting the way we talk about dementia is a powerful step forward. This World Alzheimer’s Month, Ryman is highlighting the importance of reducing the discrimination caused by stigma surrounding people living with dementia.

Caroline Bartle, Ryman’s Dementia Care and Innovations Lead, says that using appropriate language when referring to people with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia can foster a more inclusive society. This not only benefits those experiencing cognitive decline but also their families and the wider community.

✈️ We've received a question from a resident under the DMAPS flight path who used Flightradar and Webtrak to challenge the altitude data in Wellington Airport's consultation documents.

We can confirm (📸 see the pic in the comments) that flights have been recorded at altitudes below 3,000 feet over Khandallah and below 4,000 feet over Johnsonville.

The terrain in these areas varies significantly: 🌳 Khandallah is 880 feet, 🌄 Broadmeadows is 984 feet, 🏘️ Johnsonville is 495 feet, 🏞️ Horokiwi is 820 feet, 🌊 Korokoro is 135 feet, and 🏡 Newlands is 453 feet.

So, while the document doesn’t explicitly state it, flights are flying low and close to the suburbs under the current DMAPS flight path. 🌍 Sea level comparisons aren’t an accurate representation because the topography of our Wellington suburbs varies! 🌿
