Show your support on Giving Tuesday

Help people living with dementia discover the power of personalised playlists this Giving Tuesday.

There is no cure for dementia, but personally meaningful music can be a lifeline for people living with dementia. Playlists can reduce anxiety, make difficult tasks more manageable, and evoke memories that can help forge connections with loved ones.

We need your help to ensure we can continue to provide free support to anyone affected by dementia. If you can, please consider donating, or check out the other ways you can give back below. 

Giving Tuesday is a global day of giving where we can all show support to the causes that mean so much to us. Every act of generosity counts, so we’ve come up with five simple ways to support us and share our work with others.

1. Have a musical conversation with a loved one living with dementia

Personalised playlists can be a lifeline for people living with dementia. Getting started is as easy as listening to music or singing. Are there any songs that spark memories? Write them down in our Soundtrack of your life booklet.

2. Get involved in our festive campaign

This Christmas, give the gift of meaningful music to a person living with dementia.

Either build a playlist for someone you care for or, if you are able to, donate to help keep Playlist for Life’s support free to anyone who needs it.

3. Give the gift of giving

Show your ongoing support with a regular donation that makes a real difference. Your contribution can help us provide training and resources to people living with dementia, their families and carers, in addition to local community groups across the UK through our Help Point network.

4. Share our resources within your local community

Setting up a Playlist for Life Help Point is a great way to engage with and support people living with dementia in your local community. They can be established within any organisation that serves it’s  community, through GP surgeries, community centres, libraries – even hairdressers!

To find out more, visit our Help Point page.

5. Share our free resources with someone who could benefit

Visit our Resources page to access our free downloadable materials to help you at each stage of your playlist journey, whether you’re creating your own or building a playlist for someone else.

Our resources have been translated into 10 languages to make them accessible for more people impacted by dementia, and can be downloaded here.

Thank you!
