Dementia Action Week

Dementia Action Week takes place every May, with specific dates shifting each year. It’s a time for people from all walks of life to come together and make a difference for those affected by dementia. Here’s the thing: dementia doesn’t come with a label—it can touch anyone’s life. Often, we don’t even realise who’s silently battling it. It’s a heart-wrenching illness that impacts individuals and entire families, making this week an important moment for awareness and action.


Joining this week helps boost awareness and support. Whether it’s sharing stats, organising an office fundraiser or lending a listening ear to someone witnessing a loved one’s battle with dementia. By doing so, we not only shine a light on the challenges, but also stress the need for a compassionate and robust care system that helps families seek a timely diagnosis and vital support.
