Dementia, Diagnosis and Memory Support
We know that opening up about memory issues can feel daunting and isolating. Our Dementia Diagnosis and Memory Support Service (DDMS) provides reassurance, continuity and a compassionate listening ear.
Many people fear how life might change if Dementia is on the horizon. Age UK Gloucestershire is here to show that with the right information and support, it's possible to continue living the life you want.
Our friendly team offers personalised information, advice and guidance to help you understand what's happening and feel more confident about taking the next steps.

Our DDMS specialists Amy and Beth talk in more detail about the support we can provide and why it's important to seek help early.
