Understanding Alzheimer’s: A Step Toward Compassion and Action

June is Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month, a time to shed light on one of the most pressing public health challenges of our time, Alzheimer’s.

But what exactly is Alzheimer’s?

It is not just forgetfulness or “getting old.”

Alzheimer’s is a progressive brain disease that slowly destroys memory, thinking ability, and, eventually, the ability to carry out even the simplest tasks. It affects millions of people around the world, including over 86,000 in Singapore alone, and its impact is felt deeply by families, caregivers, and communities.

What You Need to Know

  • Alzheimer’s is the most common form of dementia
  • It begins with mild memory loss but can lead to confusion, mood changes, and difficulty speaking or walking

There is currently no cure, but early diagnosis and healthy lifestyle choices can slow its progression

What Can We Do?

Every brain matters. Every memory matters.
Let us raise awareness, show compassion to those living with Alzheimer’s, and take steps, big or small, toward better brain health.

Together, we can build a more informed, caring, and inclusive society.

Join us in this meaningful journey towards a society where everyone is included. Together, we can unlock opportunities and build a future where everyone has equal access and the chance to thrive.

Whether you are 25 or 75, it’s never too early, or too late, to care for your brain.

✅ Challenge your mind daily (read, learn something new, do puzzles)
✅ Be physically active (even 30 minutes of walking helps)
✅ Eat a healthy, balanced diet
✅ Stay connected with loved ones
✅ Sleep well and manage stress

Most importantly, talk about it. Remove the stigma. Recognize the signs. Support those affected.
