Why Attend?
Why come to The Alzheimer’s & Dementia Show?
Over the last 12 years, The Alzheimer’s & Dementia Show has established itself as the UK’s leading event for care providers, healthcare professionals, families and carers. This is an unmissable event for those wanting to learn from leading experts, find practical advice and support, resources, help and information, develop a better understanding of dementia and further professional skills.
The show features a fully accredited CPD conference programme with talks from leading experts, family carers and people living with dementia alongside professional advice clinics, dementia and care exhibitors and unique individual training opportunities you won’t find at any other event.
For professionals this event is the only one in the UK to offer four unique training opportunities for individuals: Virtual Dementia Tour; Autism Reality Experience; Dementia Interpreters Course; DIET - Dining Immersive Experiential Training, all of which include CPD certificates for both Training and Attendance.
The 2025 Alzheimer’s & Dementia Show is taking a significant step forward by co-locating with UK Care Week, alongside other major healthcare events such as Naidex and Neuro Convention, at the NEC Birmingham on 19-20 March. UK Care Week places a strong emphasis on addressing workforce challenges, such as recruitment, retention, and digital transformation in the care sector. This co-location also means tickets to the event are now FREE!
