Calling Over 60s: We Need You. NEW Dementia Study!

19 Feb, 2025 | Return|

Please get involved in our new dementia study that aims to enhance early detection, improve prevention, and shape future health policies surrounding dementia. 

Dementia is a life changing syndrome that is set to affect 1.6 million people in the UK by 2040. GFCT and our research team at Manchester University are determined to advance research around dementia and help change the trajectory of the condition by improving early detection and prevention, which is why we are conducting this new ComfortAge-Well Study. 

While age and genetics are key risk factors, did you know that up to 40% of dementia risk is modifiable through lifestyle changes?

By taking part in this simple test, you can take control of your own brain health as well as providing valuable data that will be used to identify early markers for dementia and develop strategies for healthier ageing, improving the lives of millions affected by the condition as well as their families.
