When you volunteer at an event as part of team Alzheimer’s Society, you are helping us to get one step closer to a world where dementia no longer devastates lives by supporting all of our amazing fundraisers. This support is so incredibly important in helping Alzheimer’s Society carry out its mission to provide Help and Hope for those living with dementia.

Dementia is the UK’s biggest killer. One in three people born in the UK today will develop dementia in their lifetime.

At Alzheimer’s Society, we’re the UK’s leading dementia charity and the only one to tackle all aspects of dementia by giving help and hope to people living with dementia today and in the future. We give vital support to people facing the most frightening times of their lives, while also funding groundbreaking research and campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be.

Together with our supporters, we’re working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives.

Our values make sure that our focus is clear for the challenges and opportunities ahead and remind us of what we all stand for.
