Do you make assumptions about what someone with Alzheimer’s disease can or cannot do?   “What changed after my diagnosis was convincing my family that I was still ok for the grandkids, as I have them after school. The last thing I wanted was to lose that time with them. It was terrifying and upsetting, and I felt like if I couldn’t do that, then I’d failed.” Person living with early Alzheimer’s disease, UK.   Making assumptions about what someone with Alzheimer’s disease is able to do, without talking to them first, can be distressing.   Help us change the way the world sees Alzheimer’s disease by re-considering how you think about, and act towards, people living with Alzheimer’s disease.   21st September is World Alzheimer’s Day.

Would you treat someone differently if you knew they had an Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis?   “People are the biggest challenge, and they have the biggest impact – lack of understanding, not being listened to, not being taken seriously and lack of acceptance.” - Person living with early Alzheimer’s disease, UK.   Being treated differently can make people living with Alzheimer’s feel excluded and disconnected from their community.   Help us change the way the world sees Alzheimer’s disease by re-considering how you think about, and act towards, people living with Alzheimer’s disease.   September is World Alzheimer’s Month.

Do you have pre-conceived ideas about how someone living with Alzheimer’s disease looks or behaves?   “People’s attitudes and mindsets about what Alzheimer’s looks like are a challenge if you don’t match that.
