Symptoms of depression can be common for people living with dementia. Caring for a loved one can also take an emotional and physical toll, sometimes leading to feelings of depression or anxiety.

Remember, looking after yourself is just as important as caring for others. ❤️

This , we encourage everyone to make time for their own wellbeing and reach out for support if things feel overwhelming.

The UK Government has announced a new £48 million partnership aimed at speeding up dementia research and the development of new treatments.

The investment includes £33 million of government funding and will help recruit more people for clinical studies, improve access to health and research data, and support the search for new treatments.

Increased investment in research brings us closer to earlier diagnosis, better treatments and, one day, a cure.

At BRACE, we’re proud to be funding research that is working towards this.

The 2026 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Karl Deisseroth, Peter Hegemann and Georg Nagel for their pioneering work on optogenetics.

Their research has helped scientists better understand how the brain works, including how it influences our memories, feelings and behaviour.

It’s another reminder of how far neuroscience has come, and how much there is still to discover about the brain and conditions such as dementia.

At BRACE, we’re proud to fund research helping to improve our understanding and bring us closer to better ways of diagnosing and treating dementia.
