We are Alzheimer Europe
Alzheimer Europe is the umbrella organisation of 41 national Alzheimer's associations from 37 European countries.
Our mission is to change perceptions, policy and practice in order to improve the lives of people affected by dementia. We are a non-profit non-governmental organisation (NGO) and will achieve our mission by providing a voice to people with dementia and their carers, making dementia a European priority, changing perceptions and combating stigma, raising awareness of brain health and prevention, strengthening the European dementia movement and supporting dementia research.
