Living with dementia!

In Scotland, dementia currently effects an estimated 90,000 people, 3,000 of whom are under the age of 65.

Dementia is a progressive illness. But, many people with a dementia diagnosis can still keep doing most of the things they have always enjoyed. They can also be an active part of their community, particularly in the earlier stages.

In some cases, a friend or relative with dementia might need a bit more support. But, by staying in contact and doing many of the things you’ve always done together, you can help them more than you think.
