Who do you turn to when everyone is turning to you?

When someone you love has dementia, the worry doesn’t stop for Christmas. For 35 years, ADSS (Alzheimer's and Dementia Support Services) has helped local families find answers, human connection and peace of mind when they don’t know where to turn. This Christmas, your donation can help us be there for another family. Dementia doesn’t stop for Christmas. With your help, neither do we.
