"Every 4 seconds, someone in the world develops dementia. There are now 44 million people worldwide living with the disease, 62% of which live in low and middle-income countries. By 2050, this number will triple to 135 million. As a result, dementia will be the most serious health crisis of the 21st century.” - ADI.

ADFM, together with ADI and its Federation of 84 Alzheimer Associations Worldwide, will be commemorating World Alzheimer’s Day with the Theme “DEMENTIA: CAN WE REDUCE THE RISK?”, focusing ON WAYS to reduce the risk of developing dementia by adopting brain healthy personal lifestyles. 

In Malaysia, ADFM and its Local State Support Groups will be hosting a MEMORY WALK in Penang, Johor and Ipoh on Sunday, 21 September 2014 (contact your respective local state support groups).
