One in three of us will develop dementia in our lifetime. No one should have to cope with a diagnosis on their own. With your help, we can give hope to anyone with a recent diagnosis and provide vital peer support that will help them live well. Every donation stays in Northern Ireland, helping local people.

Thank you for your donation. It’s only through your kindness that we can deliver our work. Together, we can empower local people living with dementia.
It will help us continue to provide our In The Same Boat service:
Our ‘In the Same Boat’ specialist support service puts a person recently diagnosed in touch with an established Dementia NI member, allowing them to gain information and advice from someone in the same boat, which can help them to feel understood and access further support. Learn more about our In The Same Boat service.
It will help us continue to provide our Empowerment Groups:
We have 16 Empowerment Groups across Northern Ireland, providing peer support and helping local people with dementia regain confidence after a diagnosis. Through the Groups, local organisations consult with our members on making their services more inclusive for people with dementia. Learn more about our Empowerment Groups.
"Dementia NI changed my life after being diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. It helped me connect with other people with a diagnosis at a time when I felt very low. It gave me hope and made me realise I could have a good life. It's your support that makes it all possible."
