Dementia Action Week

Dementia Action Week takes place on 21 – 27 May and the Alzheimer’s Society are asking everyone to take actions big and small to improve the lives of people affected by dementia.

In the UK, one person develops dementia every three minutes. Yet too many people living with dementia face the condition alone and excluded from society.

Alzheimer’s Society are determined to create a dementia-friendly UK where people with dementia are included and supported to live the lives they want. But this can’t achieved alone.

That’s why this Dementia Action Week they’re asking you and everyone you know to come together and take small actions that will make a huge difference.

Events will be taking place across England, Wales and Northern Ireland. You can also organise your own event if you wish to take part. To promote your event, please order from Alzheimers UK’s list of free awareness raising materials using their form by clicking here.
