Dementia Action Week is a national campaign to encourage people to learn more about dementia, recognise the symptoms, and seek support early.
Alzheimer’s Society estimates that 1 in 3 people living with dementia do not yet have a diagnosis, meaning they may be missing out on vital support and treatment. Common symptoms can include memory loss, difficulty finding words, confusion about time or place, and changes in mood or personality.
If you’re worried about yourself, a family member or a friend, help is available. Alzheimer’s Society offers a free symptoms checklist designed to support conversations with your GP, as well as a Dementia Support Line on 0333 150 3456.
