Research

Dementia is an umbrella term that describes a decline over time in cognitive functions such as memory, thinking skills, understanding and speech. Dementia has enormous, personal, societal and economic effects. According to NHS England (2024), 481,783 people have been diagnosed with dementia as of April 2024, and of those diagnosed, 33,711 received their diagnosis before the age of 65. The Alzheimer’s Society estimates that 900,000 people in the UK actually have dementia, which may rise to 1.6 million by 2040. Of the 900,000 people with dementia in the UK, over 78,000 are under the age of 65, and there are 25,000 from Black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. One in six people over the age of 80 has dementia.

What can EMDR offer people living with dementia and their carers?
