World Alzheimer’s Month

World Alzheimer’s Month, observed every September, raises awareness and breaks the stigma around Alzheimer’s and dementia. Launched by Alzheimer’s Disease International (ADI) in 2012, it highlights the challenges faced by those living with dementia. As Alzheimer’s becomes a growing concern with an aging population, this month reminds us of the importance of understanding and support.


Did you know that 1 in 14 people over 65 will be affected by Alzheimer’s? That’s a lot of lives touched by dementia-families, caregivers, and individuals themselves. World Alzheimer’s Month is a time to challenge the stigma surrounding the disease and show our support. How can you get involved? Whether it’s by fundraising, sharing important information, or having open conversations, every action helps create a more inclusive, understanding world. Let’s work together to ensure no one feels isolated or unheard in their journey with dementia.
