This Dementia Action Week, we’re sharing stories of research, lived experience, community connection and hope 💙

Dementia affects millions of people across the UK - people living with dementia, carers, families, friends and communities.

Throughout the week, we’ll be highlighting the people behind dementia research and the importance of awareness, understanding and support.

Every shared experience helps build understanding.
Every person involved in research helps shape the future.
Every act of support can make a difference to someone living with dementia.

This week, we’ll be sharing the people, projects and partnerships helping improve dementia research, care and support across our communities.

Today we’re proud to join the celebration of 20 years of life-changing health and care research with NIHR20! 🙌

Over the next week, we’ll be sharing stories from patients, researchers and communities whose lives have been shaped by research - from smoking cessation and diabetes support to prosthetics innovation and mental health recovery.

Because research changes lives when real people are at the centre of it. 💙

This International Nurses' Day, we are shining a spotlight on our Community Research Nurses - delivering research in the community brings vital work closer to people, improves access, and helps bridge gaps in care. 💙

"The impact comes not just from supporting someone through crisis, but from advocating for care that is kinder, more inclusive, and grounded in evidence. "
