September is World Alzheimer’s Month 🧠

Dementia affects millions of families, yet many early signs are often dismissed as "just getting older." This month is all about raising awareness, reducing stigma, and learning how we can actively support our brain health at any stage of life.

3 Habits for a Healthier Brain:

Challenge your mind: Learn a new language, try a musical instrument, solve puzzles, or read. Keeping your brain active builds cognitive reserve!
Stay socially connected: Regularly chatting with friends, volunteering, or joining community groups keeps your brain engaged and fights isolation.
Eat a rainbow: A Mediterranean-style diet packed with leafy greens, berries, nuts, and healthy fats (like olive oil) directly supports brain function.

Join us and become a Dementia Friend at dementiafriends.org.uk.
