All-Party Parliamentary Group on Dementia

The All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Dementia is a cross-party group made up of MPs and Peers with an interest in dementia.

About the APPG on Dementia

The APPG is run in partnership with Alzheimer's Society, which provides administrative support and expert advice to the group.

Its aim is to influence legislation and policy making in order to improve the lives of people living with dementia and their carers.

The group meets several times a year and uses each meeting to focus on specific issues affecting people living with dementia, and also conducts inquiries on different issues.
