Alzheimer Scotland

Alzheimer Scotland

There are over 700,000 people with dementia in the UK, and more and more people are diagnosed each year. Although there is as yet no cure for dementia, good support networks can make the world of difference to people with dementia and their families. Alzheimer Scotland is Scotland's leading specialist dementia charity helping people with all kinds of dementia, their families and carers, and campaigning to improve public policies. We provide practical services around Scotland including day care, home support, counselling and support groups. From our central office Edinburgh, we produce a wide range of information leaflets about research, drug treatments, service options and other caring issues. We also run a confidential freephone 24-hour Helpline.

Which charities can I support?

Donations can be made to any UK registered national/local charity or recognised good cause – including places of worship, schools, and foodbanks.

You can nominate more than one charity to benefit from your donations, and you can easily change the amount or nominated causes at any time. 

If your chosen cause is not listed on this site, you can still support them. Just make sure to include their registered charity number so there is no delay in forwarding on your donation.

If you’d like to make a difference close to home, you can choose to support University of Manchester students and research, or donate to Manchester Museum. Just look for 'The University of Manchester' on the drop-down menu when making your donation.
