Beat Alzheimer's
Personal Programme - Build Cognitive Resilience
Why Beat Alzheimer's?
Did you know that approximately 64,000 people in Ireland are living with dementia, and Alzheimer's disease accounts for 70% to 80% of these cases? This number is expected to more than double to 150,000 by 2045. But here's the hopeful news; research suggests that more than half of all cases could potentially be prevented or delayed by addressing modifiable risk factors.
That's where we come in. Through education, support, and practical programmes, we're here to help you build cognitive resilience. Our approach is grounded in evidence-based scientific research, which sheds light on the actionable causes of Alzheimer's disease. We don't just offer general advice—we provide specific, practical solutions and personalised plans tailored to maintain brain health and slow cognitive decline as you age.
With Beat Alzheimer's, you're not just hoping for a healthier brain; you're actively working towards it with proven strategies. Together, we can significantly reduce the prevalence of Alzheimer's in Ireland.

The Science Behind Our Assessment
We use internationally recognised cognitive assessment tools, including:
MoCA (Montreal Cognitive Assessment): A widely used screening tool for detecting mild cognitive impairment.
MMSE (Mini-Mental State Examination): Also known as the Alzheimer's Test, this helps assess cognitive impairment and track changes over time.
These tests provide established scores for healthy cognition, allowing us to identify if you're falling outside normal ranges. The beauty of these assessments is that they can detect subtle changes early on when intervention can be most effective.
Why Early Detection Matters
Catching cognitive changes at an early stage is crucial. Many forms of mild cognitive impairment can be slowed or even reversed with the right interventions. We can work together to maintain and improve your cognitive resilience by identifying potential issues and addressing modifiable risk factors early.
A Personal Prevention Plan
Based on your assessment results, we'll create a tailored Alzheimer's Prevention Plan focused on lifestyle and nutrition. We call this your A-PLAN: Alzheimer’s Prevention Through Lifestyle Assessments and Nutrition. This isn't a one-size-fits-all approach – it's a personalised strategy designed specifically for you, addressing your unique risk factors and lifestyle circumstances.
