The Lewy Body Society, established in June 2006 in the UK, was the fist charity in Europe exclusively concerned with Lewy body dementia. Our mission is to raise awareness of the disease and to support people affected by it. We produce information materials and you can also access support and information via phone or email. We also fund research to try to improve the diagnosis, treatment and care for Lewy body dementia, and to date have funded £2.2 million in research studies.
