Our dedicated team of Dementia Support Workers provide personalised support, practical guidance, and connections to local services across Buckinghamshire. We understand that every person’s experience with dementia is unique, and we’re committed to helping you live as well as possible with the right support at the right time. Dementia Support Bucks is a new service delivered by Age UK Buckinghamshire, Carers Bucks, and Age UK Hillingdon, Harrow and Brent, in partnership with its commissioners – Buckinghamshire Council and the Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and West Berkshire Integrated Care Board (BOB ICB).

Living with Dementia? Movement can help.

If you or someone you care for is living with dementia, being active can be a great way to support health and wellbeing β€” and it doesn’t have to mean joining a gym!

Regular movement can help with:

πŸšΆβ€β™€οΈ Supporting mobility and balance
πŸ’ͺ Maintaining strength and independence
❀️ Supporting heart health
😊 Boosting mood and wellbeing
🀝 Encouraging social connection

And the best bit? It all counts!

A walk, gentle exercises, chair-based movement, dancing to favourite music or gardening can all be positive steps.

Where does Move Together Bucks come in?

Move Together Bucks is a FREE programme for Buckinghamshire residents aged 50+ living with a long-term health condition β€” including dementia.

We can help you:

βœ… Find suitable local activities
βœ… Build confidence to become more active
βœ… Work around your abilities and fitness level
βœ… Set realistic goals that work for you

If you or someone you know is living with dementia and would like support to become more active, get in touch with the Move Together Bucks team to find out more and discuss making a referral.

You don't need to be fit or know what exercise to do β€” we're here to help!

Small steps can make a big difference.

πŸ‚ International Day of Older Persons 2026 πŸ‚

Today we celebrate the invaluable contributions, experiences, and wisdom of older people in our communities.

This year's theme, "The Age of Longevity: Rethinking Systems for Longer Lives," encourages us to look at how we can create a society where people can live longer, healthier, and more fulfilling lives with dignity, support, and opportunity at every age.

At Dementia Support Bucks, we see every day the importance of helping people remain connected, informed, and supported as they navigate later life and dementia.

Let's work together to build communities where everyone can age well, stay engaged, and feel valued.

πŸ’œ Happy International Day of Older Persons.

Today is World Alzheimer's Day.

Across the world, people are coming together to raise awareness of dementia and challenge stigma.

This year's campaign theme is:

πŸ’œ The Earlier You Know, The More You Can Do. A Dementia Diagnosis Matters.

A diagnosis can help people access information, support, guidance and opportunities to plan for the future.

At Dementia Support Buckinghamshire, we're proud to support people living with dementia, their families and carers throughout their journey.

Together, we can build a more dementia-friendly Buckinghamshire.
