Young onset dementia

Located in Rotherham and Doncaster.

The young onset dementia service offers assistance and evaluation upon referral from primary care for adults under 65 displaying symptoms of dementia.


How we can help

Our focus is on supporting younger patients and their families dealing with dementia onset before the age of 65.

Our services encompass:

  • assessment
  • counselling
  • continual support
  • guidance for employers, occupational health, and personnel staff

We collaborate to aid this demographic, facing unique challenges like maintaining employment, managing financial responsibilities such as mortgages, or caring for young children.

Non-urgent advice: How to get help

Referrals primarily originate from the patients GP. This allows the GP to conduct initial investigations, ruling out other potential causes for memory or cognitive issues, such as different mental health conditions, menopause symptoms, or substance misuse.
