24 hour Freephone Dementia Helpline
Our Helpline provides information, signposting and emotional support to people with dementia, their families, friends and professionals.
About our Helpline
Since 1989, our Dementia Helpline has provided emotional support, information and signposting to thousands of people living with dementia, their partners, family and friends. Our Helpline is delivered by a
dedicated team of highly skilled volunteers who understand the nature and experience of dementia.
Volunteers on the Helpline can provide information right away if you have any questions or concerns, as well as send out free information to carers, family members or people with dementia.
Our 24 hour Dementia Helpline is confidential, and you don’t have to give your name if you would prefer not to.
Alternatively, If you would like to email the helpline please contact us at: helpline@alzscot.org
Please note, if you have chosen to hide your caller ID (so that your number will not show up on the display of any telephone that you call), please dial 1470 before calling the Helpline. Otherwise we will be unable to receive your call.
