We’re a registered Dementia Friend!

There are 944,000 people living with dementia in the UK. This is said to increase to over one million by 2030, and over 1.6 million by 2050.

Emily has recently registered to become a Dementia Friend. In becoming a Dementia Friend, Emily will be learning more about dementia, and understanding what it is like for those living with the condition.

Too many people are affected by dementia, and those living with dementia feel as though society fails to understand the conditions they live with. Dementia Friends help by raising awareness and understanding so that people living with dementia can continue to live in the way they want.
