Alzheimer’s Memory Walk

Various Locations, Saturday 20th September - Sunday 21st September

This World Alzheimer’s Day, thousands of feet will hit the ground for one powerful reason — to walk for memories, for awareness, and for a future without dementia.

Join Alzheimer’s Memory Walk supported by Aviva on Sunday, September 21st, as we come together in locations across the country to remember and honour those living with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia — and the families who stand beside them every step of the way.

Why Walk?
Because every step tells a story. A story of love, courage, and hope. With over 64,000 people living with dementia in Ireland, and numbers expected to double by 2045, your support has never been more vital.

Let’s make 2025 our biggest and most meaningful walk ever! We’re calling on walkers to step up and help raise critical funds for our services like:

• Daycare and at Home Support
• Family Carer Training
• Alzheimer Cafés & Social Clubs

Our National Helpline open Mon–Fri 10am–5pm, Sat 10am–4pm
Expect a fun, family-friendly day out led by our incredible Local Champions, who are bringing energy, heart, and community spirit to every walk!

With events all over Ireland, there’s a walk near YOU — so grab your walking shoes, round up your friends and family, and be part of something truly special.
