Dementia funding 'should double'

Health ministers from the world's richest countries say they want to achieve a cure or at least a new treatment for dementia by 2025.

The illness already affects 44 million people across the globe but there are warnings that figure could treble over the next 40 years as life expectancy continues to rise.
