At ADSS we don't just support people with dementia, we also support the professionals who care for them.

Join a team that cares for you!

Together, we can build a community where nobody faces dementia alone.

Every business has the power to change lives. Whether you're looking to inspire your employees, strengthen your social impact, support staff wellbeing or make a real difference in your local community, partnering with ADSS (Alzheimer’s and Dementia Support Service) is about far more than fundraising. It's about creating lasting change.

Why partner with ADSS?

For over 35 years we've been bringing hope, purpose and dignity to people across Kent and Medway, supporting thousands of local people every year through expert advice, life-changing services and compassionate care when it's needed most.

But we believe, with your help, we can do more.

When you partner with ADSS you're not simply supporting a local charity - you'll create opportunities that inspire your people, strengthen your business and make a genuine difference across Kent and Medway.

Your partnership could help you…

  • Support employee wellbeing by helping your workforce better understand dementia and the impact it has on colleagues, customers, friends and family.

  • Demonstrate your values by investing in a cause that directly benefits your local community.

  • Create meaningful opportunities for employees to give back, build skills and make a lasting difference.

The difference we'll make together.

Behind every partnership is a person whose life has been changed.

When Mrs M was referred to ADSS, she hadn't yet received a dementia diagnosis. But she and her husband were already living with fear and uncertainty. Simple everyday tasks were becoming more difficult, they were lying awake at night worrying about the future, and they didn't know where to turn.

Through the support of an ADSS Dementia Coordinator, they found reassurance, practical guidance and, most importantly, the confidence that they didn't have to face the journey alone.

Mrs M's story is one of more than 7,500 local people supported by ADSS every year.

Every conversation. Every home visit. Every wellbeing activity. Every moment of reassurance helps someone continue living with hope, purpose and dignity throughout their dementia journey.

When your organisation partners with ADSS, you're helping write the next chapter for thousands more local people and families.

More than fundraising. A partnership with purpose.

No two businesses are the same - that's why we don't offer off-the-shelf partnerships.

We'll work with you to create something that reflects your values, motivates your team and delivers meaningful impact.

Whether that's a year-long charity partnership, specialist dementia training, volunteering opportunities or an ambitious fundraising challenge, we'll help build a partnership your colleagues will genuinely want to be part of.

One partnership. A year of unforgettable impact.

Choosing ADSS as your Charity of the Year is more than supporting a local cause - it's an opportunity to unite your employees behind something truly meaningful.

We'll work with you to create a tailored programme of fundraising, volunteering and awareness activities that engage your team, support your business objectives and make a lasting difference to local families affected by dementia.

From launch events to challenge days and celebration moments, we'll be with you every step of the way.

Bring your team together. Change lives together.

Whether it's a charity ball, quiz night, marathon, skydive or something completely unique, we'll help your employees turn their enthusiasm into real impact.

We'll provide ideas, fundraising resources and ongoing support to help make every event a success - while creating memories your team will be talking about long afterwards.

Your expertise could be life changing.

Not every contribution needs to be financial. Whether your team specialises in marketing, HR, finance, IT, legal services, design or another professional skill, sharing your expertise can strengthen our charity and help us reach even more people living with dementia.

It's volunteering with lasting impact.

Small monthly gifts. A lifetime of difference.

Payroll giving is one of the easiest ways employees can support local people affected by dementia.

Regular donations made directly from salary before tax provide sustainable funding that helps us continue delivering life-changing services across Kent and Medway.

We'll support your HR team every step of the way to launch and promote a successful scheme.

One in two of us will be affected by dementia in our lifetime, making it absolutely critical that we create progressive workplaces were employees feel understood and looked after.

Our engaging training sessions help employees better understand dementia, build confidence and create more inclusive workplaces for colleagues, customers and communities alike.

Together, we can help your organisation become truly dementia aware.

Give your team a day they'll never forget.

Whether it's supporting one of our events, helping at a community project or sharing professional skills, volunteering with ADSS gives employees the chance to make a real difference while strengthening teamwork, boosting morale and connecting with the communities they serve.

It's a powerful way to give back together.

Let's create something brilliant together.

Whether you're looking for a Charity of the Year partner, employee fundraising opportunities, dementia training or a long-term strategic partnership, we'd love to hear your ideas.

Together, we can create a partnership that's good for your business, inspiring for your people and life-changing for local families.
