Dementia Support Line
This is our chance to change the future of dementia
We’re the UK’s leading dementia support and research charity, receiving grant applications from top scientists every year. Dementia affects one in three people born today. There’s no cure, and it’s the UK’s biggest killer. Research has never been more urgent.
There’s been something of a revolution in dementia research of late, and this year’s research funding applications are an unmissable chance to keep this momentum going. The last few years have seen rapid developments in both treatment and diagnosis of dementia. Now, the best and brightest minds are applying for our research grants to push on even further. The impact of this research on people living with dementia and their families could be enormous.
There’s no time to lose. Donate today to help fund research that could beat dementia faster, the results could be life-changing for all of us. The deadline of 27 March is fast approaching to fund these potentially life changing projects.
