‘It was just a relief to talk to someone who understood what we were going through’.

- Adrian, from Lancashire

We can offer you the option to receive regular calls from us so we can keep in touch, find out how you are and offer advice and support when things change. As this part of the service is new, it may not be available in your area just yet.

  • Please note, the opening times mentioned above are our usual working hours. Very occasionally, the support line may have to close during these times.  If you need support urgently, please call one of these other organisations and helplines.
  • Support line calls may be recorded or monitored to help with training and evaluation and improve our services. Alzheimer’s Society complies with the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR).
