World Alzheimer’s Month: Raising Awareness with Compassionate Support

Every September, communities around the globe come together for World Alzheimer’s Month, a time to raise awareness, challenge stigma, and support people living with dementia. The focal point, World Alzheimer’s Day, falls on September 21 each year, uniting efforts worldwide to spotlight this critical health issue.

Alzheimer’s is not just about memory, it impacts daily life, relationships, and mental well-being. Globally, more than 55 million people live with dementia, with nearly 10 million new cases diagnosed each year.

Why This Matters in September

 Awareness is the first step to reducing stigma and encouraging early recognition of dementia. This year’s campaign theme, “Ask About Dementia”, invites everyone to learn, listen, and engage in conversations that normalize the condition and its challenges. Whether through memory walks, educational webinars, or sharing personal stories, the month’s events build connections and validate the experiences of those affected.
