#YODA #YoungOnsetDementia

Young Onset Dementia (YOD) affects around 70,000 to 80,000 people in the UK. It refers to dementia diagnosed under the age of 65 and often brings different challenges, such as continuing to work or raising a family.

We had a fantastic time at @dementiaforward’s conference yesterday. We loved having an opportunity to chat to people about the Young Dementia Network & young onset #dementia. We were delighted to catch up with @sazza773, one of our Network steering group members & @SophieDfor Young Onset Dementia at @DementiaUK. 🤩

Delighted to have a stand at @dementiaforward’s U&Me conference today. The theme is ‘Creating change’ and it is wonderful to be in a room full of people committed to bringing about change for people affected by young onset #dementia. If you’re at the conference, do come and see us!

📍 At our information hub this afternoon you'll find info on @dementiaforward as we raise awareness for World Alzheimer's Day taking place tomorrow

Located inside the ground behind the GH Brooks stand 🏟️

You may remember that last year we asked our members to share their experiences of young onset #dementia, and asked questions around diagnosis, the symptoms that most affect daily life and the impact of the condition on the person and their family.

We have collated some of the imation which shares our members’ experiences in their own words. Please share and use it and our other animations freely.
