Dementia Carers Count (DCC) is the only charity that offers essential, expert support to the 700,000 family members and friends in the UK who are looking after someone with dementia.
We provide free, life-changing support that families living with dementia so often find isn’t there for them. Our services - both face-to-face and online – give family carers the opportunity to learn about dementia, to connect with others in a similar situation and to find ways to improve and maintain their own wellbeing while navigating the highs and lows of caring for someone with dementia. Everything we do is developed together with family carers and is delivered by health and care professionals.
