Our partnership with Alzheimer's Society

Alzheimer’s Society was chosen by 51% of employees who took part in the charity selection vote in 2023.

It will take a society to beat dementia.

Dementia devastates lives and affects so many of us. Too often, people affected by dementia are excluded from everyday services that many of us take for granted. Partnerships like this are essential to changing that. By working together, we are turning insight into action to help ensure EDF services are designed in a way that truly reflects the needs of people living with dementia and those who support them.

 EDF colleagues are helping to create a future where dementia no longer devastates lives by funding vital support and groundbreaking research. Thank you for your support. It will take a society to beat dementia, and we couldn’t do it without you!

Vivienne's story

Meet Vivienne, one of our employees who shares her experience with Alzheimer's society.

Hear how the charity supported her throughout her mother's battle with Alzheimer's disease and why this partnership is so important to her and others.

I’m really proud of all our employees who continue to be an inspiring force for good. Every penny we raise for Alzheimer’s Society is going to help fund key dementia research and support services.
