Make a donation to ReMind UK
In 2021 the number of people living with dementia was estimated to be close to one million people in the UK. By 2050 this is expected to rise to 1.6 million.
One in two of us will be affected by dementia in our lifetime. And yet funding towards dementia research remains significantly lower than for other conditions.
At ReMind UK, we believe everyone should have access to an early diagnosis to give people the best chance of living well with dementia. We also believe that everyone should be entitled to adequate support, the person with the diagnosis and those caring for them.
You can help.
Your donation to ReMind UK means we can continue to get ahead of dementia through research, raising awareness of the vital need for further studies and disseminating research findings to ensure maximum impact.
Your support will mean those using our Memory Services get the time and support they need to make sense of their diagnosis and to ask questions.
Your donations mean people newly diagnosed with dementia and those who care for them are provided with vital opportunities to connect and learn through events, peer support, courses and information. Helping as many people as possible live well with dementia.

Who will your donation be helping?
Margaret and Les Herbert, from Keynsham.
“Les and I first became involved with the ReMind UK Centre in 2015 following his referral by our GP and have returned many times over the years for memory assessments and for Les to take part in a research study.
We have always found their staff to be very helpful and caring. We are so grateful for their kind support, they feel like members of our family and we are happy to support their much-needed research into dementia treatment.
I would highly recommend the ReMind UK Centre to anyone who needs help with memory issues.”
