​How your donation helps

 

We’re there for people living with dementia from day one

Jackie was only 50 when she developed dementia. As she was young, she was misdiagnosed with depression, anxiety and menopause symptoms. It took four years for her to finally get a diagnosis of young-onset Alzheimer’s disease. Though being diagnosed was difficult, it gave Jackie and Tony the answers and understanding they needed, after years of frustration and confusion. 

No one should have to experience the pain of a delayed dementia diagnosis. With your help, we can fund world-class research projects to give everyone with dementia the early and accurate diagnosis they deserve.
