This September, as we recognize World Alzheimer’s Month and mark World Alzheimer’s Day on September 21st, the global community is uniting under a powerful and simple message: it’s time to ask, to learn, and to talk openly about dementia.
The Scale of Dementia in Ireland
There are currently around 64,000 people living with dementia in Ireland, and this number is expected to double by 2045. Behind every statistic is a person — someone’s parent, partner, or friend — navigating a condition that changes not just memory, but identity, relationships, and daily life.

Supporting Family Carers
