Dementia affects nearly 1 million in UK; health officials urge families to seek help for persistent memory or behavior changes.
With dementia affecting nearly 982,000 people in the UK and projected to rise to 1.4 million by 2040, health officials urge families to watch for early signs during the holidays, such as worsening memory, confusion, mood changes, or difficulty with routine tasks.
While occasional forgetfulness is normal, persistent issues like getting lost in familiar places, trouble managing meals, or misplacing items in unusual spots may indicate dementia.
Experts stress that these symptoms are not part of normal aging and recommend a GP visit for evaluation to enable timely support and care planning.
