Swindon-based MAN Truck & Bus UK Ltd has announced their new charitable partner, Alzheimer’s Society.

Alzheimer’s Society was founded in 1979 by a group of concerned individuals who recognised the need for an organisation that could unite caregivers, provide support to those facing Alzheimer's and other dementias, and help advance research into the disease.

Stefan Thyssen, Managing Director, MAN Truck & Bus UK Ltd, said: “When choosing which charity to support we asked staff from across the network to send in their suggestions, and the winner, backed by a clear majority vote, was the amazing Alzheimer's Society.

“The decision to support Alzheimer’s Society was very personal for a number of employees and we were thoroughly impressed by the heart-warming passion surrounding this life-reducing disease.”

“As a people-first focussed business, at MAN we are incredibly excited to be partnering with such a prestigious organisation, an organisation that has, for over four decades, helped millions of people, treating them with courtesy, dignity, appreciation and compassion.” Concluded Stefan.

Alzheimer’s Society is made up of people with dementia, carers, trusted experts, campaigners, researchers and clinicians. They are the UK’s largest collective force of people with unparalleled knowledge and over 40 years of experience addressing the biggest challenges facing people living with dementia.

Amy Tattersall, Community Fundraiser for Alzheimer’s Society said, “There are around 900,000 people with dementia in the UK and too many are facing it alone without adequate support. We want everyone affected by dementia to know that whoever you are, whatever you are going through, you can turn to Alzheimer’s Society for support, help and advice.

We’re so grateful to MAN Truck & Bus for choosing to raise money for Alzheimer’s Society as their ‘Charity of the Year 2023’ - their generous support will help us reach and support more people affected by dementia.”

If you or someone close to you is affected by dementia, call Alzheimer’s Society on 0333 150 3456
