Each year, Alzheimer’s Society holds Dementia Action Week to encourage people to take action to improve the lives of people affected by dementia. With many dementia diagnosis rates at a five-year low, tens of thousands of people across the country are currently living with undiagnosed dementia. This means they don’t have access to the vital care and support that a diagnosis can bring. Getting a diagnosis can be daunting, but the society believe it’s better to know: 91% of people affected by dementia also agree. That’s why this year’s theme for Dementia Action Week is diagnosis.
