Make a donation
Thank you for thinking of Younger People With Dementia.
Your donation today could provide someone living with young-onset dementia the support and guidance they need to continue living a meaningful and fulfilling life.
Your donation will help us to continue to support those with young onset dementia and their families, giving them purpose and structure throughout the working week and reducing social isolation, loneliness and families reaching crisis point.
During our 30s, 40s and 50s we should be having the time of our lives. Usually this is a time for raising children, going on family holidays, building a career, and enjoying sports, hobbies and social time with friends. This is a time for adventure, for exploring and experiencing all that life has to offer and for creating happy memories that will live on in our children and our grandchildren. These years can look very different for people with young onset dementia and their families. Young onset dementia robs people of the most precious of gifts – the gift of time with family, children and loved ones.
Younger People with Dementia is one of only a few dedicated services to this age group in our region. With your help, we can continue to offer our integral support services to the families who rely on them.
Be sure to boost your donation by 25p for every £1 you donate
Gift Aid is reclaimed by Younger People with Dementia from the tax you pay for the current tax year. When you choose to donate, you will be asked if you wish to apply Gift Aid. You will then be asked to provide your address to identify you as a current UK taxpayer.

Help change lives for the better
We could not do what we do without your donations and support. Your donations help to change lives in the community for families affected by young onset dementia.
John's story
Your donation will help to make a difference to the lives of families like John, Janet and Evie.
“The support of YPWD has been everything to John and words to describe his experience are ‘fun, friendship, support, laughter, confidence and purpose.’ Evie and I feel the same, adding educational to the list of words, and we have really appreciated the carer support. Life is much better when he is attending the workshops with YPWD and he always really wants to go and see the friends he has made there. YPWD have given him purpose, he feels needed by the group and he almost views himself as a helper, like it is a job. When there is a break in activities, he is lost without them. Thank you.”
John, Janet and Evie
