\n North Tipperary Dementia Support Group meet the last Wednesday of every month.\n<\/p>\n
\n Caring for a loved one with dementia can be full of questions and challenges, but you do not have to face them by yourself.\n<\/p>\n
\n The Alzheimer Society of Ireland warmly invites families touched by dementia to our monthly support group at Nenagh Library.\n<\/p>\n
\n This is a space to share your story, find helpful advice, and connect with people who truly understand.\n<\/p>\n
\n Dementia affects over 64,000 people in Ireland, with numbers projected to exceed 150,000 by 2045 as the population ages, with 1 in 10 cases diagnosed under 65.\n<\/p>\n
\n The majority (63%) live at home, supported by over 180,000 carers, and the economic cost is significant, with family care and residential costs dominating.\n<\/p>\n
\n New cases emerge at about 30 per day (11,000 per year), highlighting the urgent need for better services despite recent investments, with 63% of people with dementia living in the community\/at home.\n<\/p>\n
\n This number is set to more than double, reaching over 150,000 by 2045.\n<\/p>\n
\n Each year, dementia care in Ireland costs more than \u20ac1.69 billion. Most of this comes from family care (48%) and residential care (43%).\n<\/p>\n
