We raise awareness, fund research and provide support. Lewy body dementia is the most common type of dementia you have never heard of. https://t.co/g6v8Pci4Q2

















Please sign and share our #LewyList petition which we will be taking to Westminster for the World Lewy Body Day. Your signature can make a monumental difference. Despite affecting an estimated 100,000 people in the UK, a diagnosis of Lewy body dementia is often missed due to poor understanding and lack of awareness in healthcare professionals. People with LBD face delays in diagnosis, don't receive the care they need, and their families don't get support. The knock-on effect is increased costs for the NHS. Research is woefully underfunded compared to other dementias, hampering the development of effective treatments and potential cures. We are calling on the UK Government to address these critical issues by improving professional training, increasing access to care, supporting families, and substantially investing in robust LBD research. Please sign this petition today and join us in advocating for meaningful change for those impacted by LBD: change.org/p/help-people-… #ShiningaLightonLewyBodyDementia #Lewybodydementia #dementiaresearch
