Each year we choose a charity that we wish to concentrate our fundraising efforts on and this year our chosen charity is Dementia UK
Dementia is an umbrella term for a range of progressive conditions that affect the brain.
There are over 200 subtypes of dementia. The most common are Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, frontotemporal dementia and mixed dementia.
By 2025, it’s estimated that over one million people in the UK will have a diagnosis of dementia – and almost all of us will know someone living with the condition.
