Alzheimer's Society
Dementia is the UK’s biggest killer. Someone develops it every three minutes and there’s currently no cure.
We know it is scary facing up to it, but we must confront the biggest health and social care challenge of our time.
By 2021, over 1 million people in the UK will be living with dementia. Alzheimer’s Society is the only UK charity focused on addressing the growing dementia crisis from all sides.
Your donations enable us to research into care and cure, provide support and training, and campaign for the rights of people living with dementia.
Last year, your gifts helped over 200,000 people who were affected by dementia, but we need to increase this to ensure that no one has to face dementia alone.
Thanks to your support, Alzheimer’s Society is facing dementia head on. Whether you’re a fundraiser, donor, partner, or affected by dementia in any way, we’re working with you to build a movement. Inspired by your voices, we’re leading the way in support, society and research.
We are calling on everyone to unite. Working together we know we will achieve our vision - a world without dementia.
Your Impact
Thanks to generous people like you, last year we answered 45,000 calls to our Dementia Connect support line, trained 2.8 million Dementia Friends, and invested £37 million into research, just to name a few of the incredible things that your kind gifts help to fund.
