FRIEND’S FACEBOOK GROUP – Where you can ask questions, share experiences with others, find out what works

Most of all, becoming a Friend supports the essential work of the charity, educating people on the importance of nutrition for brain health, providing free resources that help people manage their condition, and helping thousands take steps towards reducing their risk of dementia in the future through our free Cognitive Function test and Dementia Risk Index questionnaire. It helps us continue our Catering Accreditation scheme, working with caterers in schools, universities and other catering establishments to upgrade their offering to promote brain health. It also supports our ongoing research finding out how best to inspire positive change to help people reduce their dementia risk through diet and lifestyle. But we can’t do any of this without your support.

Every £1 you give helps us reach and change the lives of so many more people.
