Want to talk about dementia? For World Alzheimer’s Month this September, we’re starting more open conversations about dementia.


If you or someone you care for is living with dementia, has had a diagnosis, or simply has questions, Dementia Heroes are here to help. Drop in to the Mitchell Library on Thursday 17th September from 11am-12 noon for free information, support, or just a chat.


No one in Glasgow should face dementia alone.
