Dementia is an umbrella term for a range of progressive conditions that affect the brain. When you or someone you care for is living with dementia, your world can fall apart.
Dementia
There are over 200 different types of dementia including Alzheimer’s, vascular, Lewy bodies, frontotemporal and mixed dementia.
Here’s how we can help.
Practical support
We work closely with Dementia UK and their Admiral Nurses to give you access to specialist advice and support when you need it.
Admiral Nurses are experienced registered nurses. They provide specialist one-to-one support, guidance and practical solutions to people with dementia, their families and people important to them.
If you’d like to find out more about dementia or if you’d like to speak to an Admiral Nurse for support and advice, please book an appointment. These Dementia UK virtual clinics are free and confidential and funded by us. You can speak to someone by video or phone.
Note: Appointments are subject to availability. When you click the box below you will leave this website and be subject to Dementia UK terms and conditions.
Support for you as a carer
Caring for a partner, parent, family member or friend with dementia is tough. Find support which can help you and the person you care for.
Money worries and legal matters
Dementia can bring new financial concerns. From state benefits or managing debt to Power of Attorney and Wills, help is available.
