Abstract
A worldwide ageing population has brought to the fore the concept of frailty and the need to understand, characterise and importantly to slow the process. Within this is the concept of cognitive frailty which is as yet most commonly understood to be memory loss- a spectrum of the forgetfulness which is thought to come with age through to dementia. Here I discuss this and explain why this needs to expanded in order to allow further exploration and thought about cognitive frailty, the ways in which it can manifest and how it can be managed.
