Know someone affected by dementia?

Many of us do. A grandparent, a loved one, or a friend. My Mum was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia a few years back, at an unexpectedly young age, and it has changed her life - and our lives - forever.

Unfortunately dementia in all its forms continues to impact the lives of many, but lacks meaningful prevention, treatments and cures. My aim is to raise money toward these endeavours.

Making an impact in this area can change the outcome and quality of life for the millions of people who suffer from such conditions, and advance our understanding of the brain.

Backed by passionate scientists and supporters, Alzheimer's Research UK is challenging the way people think about dementia, bringing together the people and organisations who can speed up progress, and investing in research to make life-changing breakthroughs possible.
