Football Against Dementia
Football Against Dementia aims to help anyone (not just footballers) affected by dementia by providing a range of practical support and guidance.
Chris Sutton Ambassador
It all began after seeing our Ambassador, Chris Sutton’s BBC interview about his late Father Mike Suttons battle with dementia. And then we received a donation of a football kit from our ‘Club Doctor’ Dr Sheldon, which started the ball rolling!
We want to build a club of people and businesses to fight against dementia and create happy memories whilst helping people stay in their own homes if that is their wish.
Club Ambassadors
Club Ambassadors are people who freely give their support to helping the club grow and raise awareness of Dementia, many of whom have personal experience with friends, family and former teammates being affected.
The more Ambassadors, the louder our voice.
What We’ve Done
We have been involved in an impressive record of past, current and future projects. From liaising with health authorities, visiting dementia support groups, holding football games and tournaments and arranging get togethers for ex-players, clubs and match officials and supporters.
