Oxon, UK, October 15, 2010 — Hearing the words of confirmed dementia or Alzheimer’s after undergoing tests for the conditions is an intense moment for both the sufferer and carer or carers. DementiaWeb.org.uk ( http://www.dementiaweb.org.uk ) understands how difficult hearing these words can be and how worrying and frightening the future can seem as you start planning for a very different future to the one you might of expected.

DementiaWeb was launched in 2010 to help anyone connected to or affected by Dementia or Alzheimer’s, offering a wealth of information that answers so many of the questions that often remain silent unless you specifically seek answers to them. The leading website provides support and information for people with dementia and their carers in the UK, covering many of the counties and borders with individual organisations that all fall under the DementiaWeb umbrella.

Finding out that someone you love and care about has dementia ( http://www.dementiaweb.org.uk ) will probably leave you finding that there are times when you need some emotional or practical support, usually both. You can often find yourself in the role of primary carer for a loved one, distanced from many other people in your life that often can not understand the illness. From coping with unusual behaviours, to talking to someone who understands dementia face to face, on the telephone or on-line, this new resource aims to help you find the support you need.

When you find yourself in the position of caring for someone who has dementia or Alzheimer’s, you will often have periods where you need to speak to someone, for what ever reason. This may be because you need advice about something or simply that you just need a supportive ear from somebody who understands and appreciates the situation you find yourself in. It can often be hard to find the right person, organisation or department to speak to when you desperately just need someone to listen, which is where DementiaWeb.org.uk ( http://www.dementiaweb.org.uk ) can offer the correct details of the organisation you really need to be speaking to.

There are many things to consider when dealing with dementia, from the initial diagnosis to when things start to really evolve with the condition. Understanding what dementia is, and what causes dementia, to what to do following diagnosis, available treatment, and memory clinics, DementiaWeb ( http://www.dementiaweb.org.uk ) helps to bring down the mystery surrounding all of these topics and allows you to plan your next steps when it comes to dealing with what can often be a very uncertain future.
