By giving just two or three hours to collect at your local supermarket this May, you can make a life-changing difference and help even more people living with Dementia receive the support they need.

We’d love you to sign up to a collections slot, and you can always select to take part in more.

The Alzheimer's Society patron Dame Judi Dench said: ‘Having seen the impact of Dementia on people around me, I’m sadly all too aware of how painful, cruel and unforgiving this condition can be.

'Not only on the person affected, but their friends and family too, as Dementia can turn the relationships we hold most dearly upside down. It is heart-breaking, and we must take action.

'I’m proud to wear my Forget Me Not badge and support people affected by Dementia.’
