Dementia Awareness Week is from May 19th to 25th 2025.
Did you know there are over 944,000 people in the UK living with dementia?
That’s 1 in 11 people over the age of 65. By 2030, this number is expected to rise to over 1 million.
Pop into Codsall Community Hub, Wolverhampton Road, WV8 1PX, from Monday, May 19th to pick up useful information leaflets. Alzheimer's Society will also be at the Hub on Thursday, May 22nd from 9.30am until 2pm to speak to people and offer advice and support.
If you’re worried about yourself or a loved one, learn more about dementia and gain a better understanding of what it is. Having some knowledge of what it’s like to live with dementia can help you to support someone with the condition and help them to live well.
