    'My Grandad is 90 years old and has dementia. I'm a drummer in a band, and every time we have a new track I go around and play it to him! I really want to show people what a small thing like music can do for a person with dementia!' - Liam, with his Grandad Mo ❤️❤️

    Richard's wife passed away with Alzheimer's disease in 2016. Now @Louis_Tomlinson has stepped forward to offer Richard a helping hand - and he's shared the results in a truly inspiring film. Louis, thank you so much for your support for people affected by dementia! ❤️

    Ballerina Marta C. Gonzalez - who lived with dementia - is taken back to her days dancing in Swan Lake thanks to the power of music. This clip shows what an important tool music can be for people with dementia. So beautiful to see! 💙🎶 @DespertarMusica

    Our thoughts are with our Ambassador @realmissfiona and her family following the announcement that she is living with dementia. Sharing such personal news publicly raises much needed awareness of dementia and we are extremely grateful to Fiona.

    We’re deeply saddened by the news that our supporter, Denis Law, has died with dementia. We’ll be forever grateful that Denis and his family raised not only money for Alzheimer’s Society, but a great deal of awareness too. Our thoughts are with all his friends and family 💙

    Even Larry the Cat joined us earlier as we handed in our open letter, demanding the Government make dementia a priority. Here he is speaking to the national press! 💙 @Number10cat

    This is absolutely beautiful - would you mind at all if we shared it on our own social pages? We think it might hopefully inspire a few more people to take action, like Leigh 🙂 Best wishes to you & your nan; if there's anything we can do to offer support, just let us know ❤️

    This #InternationalCatDay, we are celebrating the incredible bond between Bob - a former veterinarian living with Alzheimer’s disease - and his cat, Mooshu. 'Animal contact is very important to Bob and Moosh willingly supplies it all the time,' said Patricia, Bob's wife. 💙🐱

    We love this video so much that we just had to share it again. Patricia’s husband is living with Alzheimer’s disease and one of the only things that bring him comfort is his cat, Mooshu. The former veterinarian and his cat share a bond and Mooshu is always right beside him. 💙
