The Alzheimer Society of Ireland is hosting the 30th Alzheimer’s Tea Day across Ireland this May and The Alzheimer’s Day Centre in Castlerea, Co Roscommon will join the celebrations with Tea Day on Friday, May 3rd, from 11 am to 2 pm.
The 30th anniversary is a significant milestone, as statistics show that at least 30 people in Ireland are diagnosed with dementia every single day.
Michelle Shiel (Castlerea Day Centre Manager) commented: “2024 marks the 30th anniversary of Tea Day and we are delighted to host Tea Day in the Alzheimer Society of Ireland’s Castlerea Centre to help support our services users, their families and carers”.
Alzheimer’s Tea Day brings communities together across Ireland to support the ASI’s vital work, providing much-needed resources and services for the 64,000 individuals living with dementia and their families nationwide. With the number of people diagnosed with dementia expected to double in the next 25 years, the need for support has never been greater.
Over the 30 years, Tea Day has raised €10 million to help support people living with dementia across Ireland, along with their families and carers.
