Dubliners are being urged to join walk to support people during World Alzheimer’s Month 2022.
An estimated 16,967 people live with dementia in Dublin, and 64,000 people suffer from the disease in Ireland. This figure is expected to more than double to 150,000 in the next 25 years.
The Alzheimer’s Memory Walks take place on September 18 and are suitable for all ages and abilities. The Alzheimer's Society of Ireland hopes to raise €250,000 for vital services that help to support the many people with dementia and their family carers across Ireland.
