Dementia Research UK is a grant-making charity which raises funds for dementia research projects in all regions of the UK.

Alzheimer’s Research UK
Dementia robs us of everything that matters. Our memories. Our connections. Our stories. Currently one in two people will be directly impacted by dementia: either by caring for someone with the condition, developing it themselves, or both. We have seen advances in other areas of medical research save millions of lives. Yet today, dementia remains a condition that cannot be cured.
