One in three people born in the UK today will develop dementia in their lifetime. Currently, there are one million people in the UK living with dementia.
At Alzheimer’s Society, we know investment in research is key to changing the landscape of dementia. That’s why we’re backing the world’s brightest minds, funding more than 600 research projects to find the best ways to get an early diagnosis, innovate care, and develop targeted treatments.
Your donation means people don’t have to face dementia alone. Here’s what supporters helped us to do last year:
- Invest £12.2 million in cutting-edge research and promising projects, accelerating the progress in diagnosing and treating people with dementia.
- Fund our services, with people using our services more than six million times to access vital support via phone, online, or in local communities.
It’s not too late to use your place to join the Alzheimer’s Society team and together we will bring help and hope to everyone living with dementia. Every mile you run makes a massive difference.
