How we can support you
Whether you have a question that needs an immediate answer or need emotional support when life feels overwhelming, these are the ways our dementia specialist Admiral Nurses can support you.
The campaign is a chance for everyone to come together to raise awareness of dementia and to address the stigma that still exists around the condition.
World Alzheimer’s Day takes place during the month on 21st September 2026.
Why does World Alzheimer’s Month matter?
Dementia affects millions of people, as well as their families and friends. World Alzheimer’s Month is an opportunity to increase understanding of dementia, challenge misconceptions and make sure people affected by the condition know where to turn for support.
This year, we’re reminding everyone affected by dementia that we’re here for them.
