It’s time to change the conversation
To accelerate progress towards life-changing treatments, we must also change the conversation about dementia.
We talk to Regional Fundraising Officer Kyle Lockhart for International Volunteer Managers’ Day

Dr Carol Routledge has recently joined Alzheimer’s Research UK as our new Director of Research. What experience does she bring to the charity and what does she see in the future for Alzheimer’s Research UK? We caught up with Carol as she begins her new role.
David Cameron becomes our president
Dementia steals people’s lives, turns their relationships upside down, destroys their hopes and dreams. We owe it to them, their families and their carers to find a solution. That is why I launched the Prime Minister’s Dementia Challenge in 2012. And that is why today I am joining Alzheimer’s Research UK as the charity’s President, so that I can continue the work I began in government focusing on this life-shattering illness.
Our new Chief Scientific Officer
Dr David Reynolds joins Alzheimer’s Research UK in June as our new Chief Scientific Officer. What experience does David bring to the charity and how does he view the task ahead? We spoke to David as he takes up his new role.
Dementia: it’s not all about Alzheimer’s or memory
It’s a common misconception that dementia is all about Alzheimer’s and that it’s all about memory loss.
