Fundraise to help bring music to more families facing dementia

From now until National Playlist Day on 20th September, we’re cordially inviting you to join our summer of Musical Teas and raise funds to help us continue to improve the lives of people living with dementia and their families.

Why are we fundraising?

We need donations to continue providing vital support to people living with dementia in the UK.

Our resources are always free to anyone who needs them, with a cost to us of £1 to provide a family with a resource pack. And while £1 may not seem like a big cost on paper, the soaring number of people becoming diagnosed with dementia makes the amount we need to raise staggering.

There are currently more than 900,000 people with a recorded diagnosis of dementia which means it would cost us more than £900,000 to provide every family living with dementia with resources to help create a personalised playlist.

We're aiming to raise £5,000 to ensure we can continue to support families facing dementia.
