Doubles 4 Dementia · 18 May 2019

Dementia UK is the specialist dementia nurse charity. Our nurses, called Admiral Nurses – who we continually support and develop – provide life-changing care for families affected by all forms of dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease.

Story

  • There are 850,000 people with dementia in the UK.
  • 225,000 people will develop dementia this year, that's one every three minutes.
  • £27 could pay for a brand new Admiral Nurse for an hour.
  • £500 could allow two Admiral Nurses to take Helpline calls all day on a Sunday, when other services are closed.
  • £1,000 could pay for a brand new Admiral Nurse for an entire week.

Unfortunately my family have been significantly affected by dementia and it really is a horrible disease that as yet, has no cure.  Professional support can make a huge difference to the quality of life for not only the patient, but also for family and friends.

Please give what you can to help raise money for Dementia UK who provide Admiral Nurses to support families affected by dementia.

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit this page.
