Join #TeamAlzScot today!

Alzheimer Scotland is the leading dementia organisation in Scotland. 

We campaign for the rights of people with dementia and their families and provide an extensive range of innovative and personalised support services.

Receiving a diagnosis of dementia can be a devastating and frightening time both for the person with dementia and for their families and friends.

Every penny you raise for us will help us make sure nobody faces dementia alone.

We’re here when people need someone to listen to them and give emotional support, or when they need practical information and advice. You can pick up the phone to our 24 hour Freephone Dementia Helpline (0808 808 3000) anytime or meet with our Dementia Advisors.

We help fund research into dementia prevention, giving hope to future generations.

Over 90,000 people in Scotland are living with dementia and as that number continues to rise, there has never been a more vital time to support the work of Alzheimer Scotland. We can’t make a difference to people living with dementia without fundraisers like you.
