Christmas is a time full of memories. We can all remember our best present - and our worst. But imagine how frightening it would be to lose your memory. 800,000 people in the UK live with dementia, and this is set to rise to 1 million by 2021. Here Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg shares his favourite Christmas memory as part of the 'Xmas2remember' campaign. Get involved and tweet us your favourite memory using the hashtag #xmas2remember.
