Dementia devastates lives. By 2021, 1 million people will be living with the condition. But dementia won't win.

Everything we do is informed and inspired by them. 

We are the UK's leading dementia charity. Every day, we work tirelessly to find new treatments and, ultimately, a cure for dementia. We provide expert information, training, and support services to all those who need our help. And we are creating a more dementia-friendly society so people with the condition can live without fear and prejudice.
