Edith's Story

With your support we can help more people with Dementia like Edith and her family.

Where we work

We have 3 different services in different areas of the North East

Single or monthly donation

A donation to Dementia Matters helps us be the voice for more people with dementia – with our advice and support they can have a voice.

Day centre

Providing much needed daily respite for dedicated carers throughout the north east and a stimulating environment with a touch of fun and sense of purpose for those who attend.

Advice centre

The Dementia Advice Centre is a brand-new service for people living on Tyneside looking for effective, coordinated support or information about living with dementia.

By giving us your spare time, you're helping support those people and families who are affected by dementia. In turn we can offer you a rewarding experience where you can learn new skills, meet new friends and much, much more

Where your money goes

Unlike large national charities, Dementia Matters do not have huge fundraising resources. This has two impacts on a charity like ours. Firstly, it means that it is always a challenge to bring the funds in that we need to provide those “extra” services. Secondly, however, it means that practically every penny donated goes to the people we support.
