Dementia Action Week

Dementia Action Week is a national event that encourages people to take action to improve the lives of people affected by dementia. It starts on 17 May and ends on 23 May.

One in three of us born in the UK today will go on to develop dementia in our lifetime, and there will be one million people living with dementia by 2025 making dementia care one of the greatest challenges facing our society.

We all have a role to play in making the UK a dementia-friendly place to live and that’s what Dementia Action Week is all about.
