Dementia research is important. It can help people living with the condition now, as well as helping to prevent people from developing dementia in the future.

Everybody diagnosed with a form of dementia should have a chance to discover, get involved and participate in dementia research.

Taking part in dementia research

Taking part in a research study can take many forms depending on the type of research.

Many patients find that taking part in a clinical research study is a very interesting and rewarding experience.

It is always important to talk over any potential advantages and disadvantages with your doctor/nurse or a healthcare professional. 

Morag was recently diagnosed with a form of Alzheimer's disease. Watch the video to find out about her and husband John embarking on their journey into research.
