About the organisation
So.. is a registered Charity providing support for younger people with dementia, including those recently diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease or any other form of dementia. The support groups are also for the carer partner and our aim is to help and provide aid so that people can live as near as possible a normal life. So… was formed because once a person is diagnosed with Early Onset Dementia there is then no or very little help or care from the NHS. To this end we provide support groups so people can learn that they are not on their own and there is help and at the very least a shoulder to lean on.
