World Alzheimer’s Day is a yearly, global campaign to raise awareness of, educate and encourage support of Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia.
Living with dementia brings huge challenges, but campaigns such as World Alzheimer’s Day provide knowledge, advice and much-needed support to people living with dementia, as well as their friends, family and those that care for them.
As the nation’sleading provider of reminiscence activities for the elderly and people living with dementia, our resources are enjoyed by a readership of thousands every single day.Our resources relate to a world that many people live in – a world which we view as the past, but which is often their experience of reality. Our resources trigger memories of that world, subsequently prompting conversation, boosting self-esteem and enabling connection.
