Activities for World Alzheimer's Day
Coping with Alzheimer's and senile dementia in everyday life presents enormous challenges for sufferers, relatives and carers every day. A diagnosis of dementia brings major changes for affected families. Worries, fears and uncertainties place an additional burden on everyday life. This makes it all the more important to make society aware of the issue.
Social acceptance and inclusion of people with dementia increases the appreciation of those affected, relatives, carers and all people who have to deal with the issue on a regular basis.

World Alzheimer's Day 2024
Information event on 20 September at the Metropol cinema
A diagnosis of dementia can throw your life completely off course. For the person with dementia and their family, the time afterwards is associated with many questions, uncertainties and fears.
The motto for World Alzheimer's Day 2025 is "Dementia - be and stay human". This message is intended to draw attention to the fact that people affected by dementia are and will remain the same people. Despite their illness, their experiences, memories, experiences and emotions continue to characterise them and are sometimes hidden deep within them. This often presents relatives and loved ones with a challenging everyday life. The 11th information day aims to show them how to overcome the everyday challenges so that they can be and remain human together with their loved ones.
With this event, the DementiaNet_C would like to inform and sensitise people about dementia-related changes in an understandable way. Interested parties can look forward to an exciting day with authentic testimonials, a panel discussion and a question-and-answer session that will give them a glimpse behind the scenes of dementia and help them understand it better. Information stands will provide knowledge about support services.
