THE ALZHEIMER SOCIETY OF IRELAND

The Alzheimer Society of Ireland (ASI) is the national charity dedicated to supporting people living with dementia and their families. Through a blend of information, advice and community programmes, ASI helps individuals navigate the challenges of diagnosis, daily care and long-term planning, while also championing public awareness and research initiatives across the island.

Key services include the free Dementia Adviser Service, a national helpline and live-chat support, family-carer training, and specialised training for organisations. ASI also runs day-care facilities such as the Curlew Road Day Care Centre in Drimnagh and collaborates on projects that give voice to lived experience - from the "Memory Lane Heroes" series to personal stories like those of Bryan and Una or Bríd and Vincent Kelly. By linking families with resources, advocacy and a supportive community, the Society plays a vital role in improving quality of life for those affected by dementia throughout Ireland.
