Manny gets reaction from Bristol about Tony Blair's comments that every country should teach respect for other religions in its schools - to tackle religious extremism.

The former prime Minister, Tony Blair has told the BBC that every country should teach respect for other religions in its schools - to tackle religious extremism, we will get reaction to this from the Asian community in Bristol.  Also, all this week we’ve been talking about dementia and how treating the disease costs more than thirty thousand pounds per person each year, but what if you choose not to take advantage of the help that’s out there?  Can you deal with the condition within your own family and community?  Manny hears from Biju Abraham who is the president of the Weston-super-Mare Association of Malayalees, that’s people who’ve migrated here from Kerala in India and is himself an emergency nurse trained in dementia care.  And Manny will be joined in the studio by Girish Patel of Stroud and his Asian musicians who are hoping to educate people about Dewali.
