Dame Barbara Windsor has spoken publicly about dementia for the first time since revealing her diagnosis, as her husband says there is “still so much of her there” despite her illness.

Wearing a blue campaign t-shirt in support of Alzheimer’s charity Dementia Revolution, she said: “I’m asking you to make a stand against dementia.”
