"Dementia Action Week: Building a Dementia-Friendly India Together"

Published by LifeOnPlus | May 19–25, 2025 | Dementia Action Week

Dementia doesn’t just affect memory—it changes lives.

And in India, where families are the backbone of care, dementia brings emotional, social, and economic challenges. This Dementia Action Week, LifeOnPlus joins the global mission to raise awareness, inspire action, and support every individual and caregiver affected by dementia.

What is Dementia?

Dementia is a group of conditions that affect brain function—impacting memory, thinking, behavior, and daily activities. The most common form is Alzheimer’s disease , but there are many types. It mostly affects people over 60, but early-onset cases are rising too.

There is no cure yet , but early detection, support, and lifestyle changes can slow progression and improve quality of life.

India’s Reality

over 4 million people live with dementiain india.

80% go undiagnosed due to low awareness.

Care is mainly family-led,with little formal support.

Stigma still surrounds the condition, especially in rural areas.
