There is an average of one new case of dementia every four seconds.*

Dementia encompasses a range of brain diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease. They cause cognitive impairment and are much more likely to occur with age. Dementia has a serious effect on the lives of not only its sufferers, but also has a significant impact on their family and friends.

  • The different types of dementia
  • Risk factors and investigation
  • The various treatments and supports available
