Today, the Dementia Support Line could receive up to 406 calls – that’s how many calls we receive on our busiest days. Behind every call is a person looking for answers. Somone might have been worrying about their memory for days, weeks, months even. They might have been handed a dementia diagnosis but little else – no pathway and no real plan. 

Every person who calls has questions they just can’t answer alone. That’s why our dementia advisers are there seven days a week and are trained to answer those questions. They listen without judgement and provide a safe space for callers to share their worries, ask questions and receive the information, guidance and reassurance they need. 

Pete called after his dementia diagnosis and had lots of questions: “I kept thinking ‘What should I be doing now?’” He explained. “But the person at the support line had all the time in the world to speak to me. We came away with a plan. With a bit of hope. It was wonderful.” Your gift could help us answer more calls and questions – and give people the support they need.
