#GivingTuesday - Alzheimer Scotland promotes vital helpline
Scotland’s national dementia charity will use Giving Tuesday as an opportunity to raise awareness of the Dementia Helpline in the lead up to the festive season and ask the public to support the vital lifeline with a donation.
Dementia doesn’t take a break over Christmas and neither does the Dementia Helpline. For more than 25 years, there has been a voice on the end of the phone throughout the holidays, 24 hours a day, to listen and support anyone who needs to call.
