Story

Tom and Ed are raising money for a new Centre for Rare Dementia Support following Tom's Dad being diagnosed with a Rare Dementia.

The National Brain Appeal's campaign to establish the world's first Centre for Rare Dementia Support.

The National Brain Appeal has supported Rare Dementia Support (RDS) since the first meetings in 1994. RDS runs regular, specialist support groups, in London and regionally, provides newsletters, contact networks and an digital platform with access to information and advice for people living with or at risk of inherited, atypical and young onset dementias. Our vision is to support all these people by substantially expanding RDS.

Please help The National Brain Appeal reach the first million of this campaign to create the worlds first centre of excellence for rarer dementias.

The Rare Dementia Support Centre will exemplify how best to support those living with a rare dementia, through the involvement of its members and visitors in research and will lead in the bespoke education of families, healthcare and other relevant professionals.
