All the latest news and stories about Alzheimer's disease, dementia and the brain.

We’re grateful for all the volunteers across the organization whose constant dedication furthers our work for British Columbians affected by dementia. From administrative support, to photography and advisory committees, thank you to the volunteers who provide so much unseen support for people affected by dementia.

This year, for the first time ever, Alzheimer Societies across Canada will hold the IG Wealth Management Walk for Alzheimer’s, online, on a single day: Sunday, May 31. The 2020 event, which traditionally takes place in communities across the nation, will assume a different format, given COVID-19 and the crucial need for physical distancing. However, now, more than ever, we need to connect to honour and celebrate people affected by dementia.

During National Volunteer Week, we are showcasing stories shared by volunteers and Society staff about how volunteers have made a difference for people living with dementia.
