🌍 Today is World Alzheimer’s Day. The day serves as an important reminder of the role we can all play in supporting people living with dementia and reducing the risk of developing it.

Physical activity has been shown to help maintain brain health and independence, and as system partners we can work together to ensure communities have access to opportunities that make this possible.

The Alzheimer’s Society provides excellent resources on the link between physical activity and reducing dementia risk: https://www.alzheimers.org.uk/about-dementia/managing-the-risk-of-dementia/reduce-your-risk-of-dementia/physical-activity

Here in Norfolk, we’ve developed dementia-friendly walking routes designed to support safe, accessible activity for those living with dementia and their carers: https://www.activenorfolk.org/public/get-active/active-outdoors/dementia-walk-maps/

We’d love for you to help us highlight these resources today by sharing them with your networks and communities. Together, we can make Norfolk a more supportive county for those living with dementia.
