Almost 1 million people are living with dementia in the UK. By 2040, this is expected to rise to more than 1.4 million.
It is only through research that we can understand what causes the disease, develop effective treatments, improve care and hopefully one day find a cure. But for research to progress we need more people to take part in more studies.
This short animation explains how you can get involved with Join Dementia Research, the UK-wide service that matches people with dementia research studies they could take part in.
Anybody over 18 can sign up. There are studies for people with dementia or memory problems, their carers and healthy volunteers.
