Dementia Adventure has been at the forefront of providing fully supported, small group short breaks for people living with dementia and their carers for 15 years. Our supported breaks offer more than just respite; they provide meaningful, purpose-driven experiences that significantly enhance the quality of life for both people living with dementia and their caregivers.

As Harriet heads towards Yorkshire on her 900 mile walk from Land's End to John O'Groats she's reflecting on World Alzheimer's Day on 21st September.

Currently, there are around 982,000 people living with a dementia diagnosis in the UK, a number expected to rise to 1.4 million by 2040. Of these, 70,800 are under the age of 65, known as Young Onset Dementia.

This week she's exploring the importance of inclusion and how creating welcoming spaces for people living with dementia and their careers is vital.

You can listen to Harriet's playlist on Spotify. Each week she's adding songs to match her mood on her epic walk!
