Our Help and Hope Strategy

Our bold and ambitious five-year framework of priorities which underpins all the work we do at the Society.

A changing world

For over 40 years, Alzheimer’s Society has been a powerful force for change, improving the lives of people living with dementia.

Over those crucial years we’ve nurtured our relationships with people living with the disease, to better understand the complexities of delivering support within a challenging health and social care system.

We have also been at the forefront of science and research, backing the world’s brightest minds and funding life-changing breakthroughs.

In 2021, we prepared ourselves for a world that was once again changing, and developed a framework of priorities to bring about the seismic change so desperately needed. We call this framework our Help and Hope Strategy.

Quality Accounts

As a provider of services commissioned by NHS England and Integrated Care Boards, Alzheimer's Society is pleased to provide our first Quality Account for 2023-2024.

Quality Accounts report on the quality of our services, looking at the safety and effectiveness of the services we provide.  They also outline steps taken throughout the year to further develop and enhance the processes we have in place to both quality assure our services, but also, importantly, the structures and resources we provide to enable our services to deliver quality.  

Hearing directly from people who use our services, what works for them and where we might be falling short, is an essential component to delivering quality services.  Our quality account evidences what we have been told through our feedback and evaluation processes.

If you have any comments or questions, please email our Head of Quality and Insight, Kate Gledhill (kate.gledhill@alzheimers.org.uk).
