Dementia Action Week

Walk With Us

BDAA is walking the 13-mile route from Bath to Bristol in celebration of our 13th year anniversary.

Join BDAA Founder and Chair Tony Hall on this fundraising walk. Tony is also having his hair dyed BDAA purple en-route!

Help us to raise awareness across Bristol and create supportive communities for families affected by dementia. Together we can make a real difference to the lives of those affected by the disease.
