Alzheimer Europe's 
On World Alzheimer’s Day (21 September), a day dedicated to raising awareness of Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia, as well as challenging the stigma that surrounds dementia, Alzheimer Europe was proud to re-launch the European Alzheimer’s Alliance, bringing together 75 MEPs from 21 countries and seven political groups.
Congratulations to all our members for all their hard work this September, also known as “World Alzheimer’s Month”, in particular on World Alzheimer’s Day. One of the many events and campaigns was a “Memory Walk” organised by Association Luxembourg Alzheimer and the Alzheimer Europe team was delighted to attend and support.
The EU4Health Civil Society Alliance, which includes Alzheimer Europe, has published an open letter to European Commission President, Ursula von der Leyen, expressing concern regarding the position of health within the priorities of the EU, following the announcement of the Commissioners-designate.
"Rolling for Dementia” campaigner Golnaz Atefi has skated over 1,000 km during September, promoting inclusivity and diversity in dementia care and research; meeting and interviewing researchers, healthcare professionals, and others along the way. This is a World Record for the farthest distance ever skated by a female! Passing through Luxembourg for World Alzheimer’s Day, she met with Alzheimer Europe, the ALA and the Info-Zenter Demenz.
