Story
In loving memory of Noel, who battled with Alzheimer's for over 5 years and passed away on 7th November 2020. A fantastic husband, father, brother, son, grandad, uncle and friend.
We have been overwhelmed by everyone's support. We have received lovely stories and anecdotes of Noel through the years and we hold these memories close to our heart. They have really helped us through this sad time, so for that we thank you.
Dementia is not a disease itself, it is the word used to describe a group of symptoms. Alzheimer's is the most common disease that causes dementia.
There are currently nearly 36 million people with dementia in the world but as many as 28 million of those living with dementia worldwide do not have a diagnosis. The numbers of people living with dementia worldwide is expected to double every 20 years.
There is currently no cure for dementia. Alzheimer's Research UK is the UK's leading dementia research charity, dedicated to causes, diagnosis, prevention, treatment and cure.
