13th – 19th May 2024
According
to the Alzheimer’s Society, one in three of us born in the UK today will go on
to develop dementia in our lifetime, making dementia care one of the greatest
challenges facing our society. Dementia
Action Week takes place every year in order to highlight the need for improved
dementia care and to encourage people to take action to improve the lives of
those affected by dementia.
