CELTIC FC FOUNDATION SUPPORTS WORLD ALZHEIMER'S DAY

LAST week, Monday, September 21, marked World Alzheimer’s Day and Celtic FC Foundation, alongside Celtic Football Club, are proud to support this campaign that aims to raise awareness and highlight issues faced by people affected by Alzheimer’s and Dementia.

Alzhemier’s and Dementia are very close to our hearts and since 2018, thanks to funds raised from the #LionsLegacy initiative, Celtic FC Foundation has strived through its Lions’ Lunch Break projects to improve the quality of life for those living with Alzheimer’s and Dementia.

Dementia is a general term for a decline in mental ability severe enough to interfere with daily life, with Alzheimer’s being the most common cause of dementia.

‘Lions’ Lunch Breaks Glasgow’, delivered weekly prior to Covid-19 by Celtic FC Foundation at Celtic Park and its Edinburghbased counterpart, ‘Liddell Lions’ Lunch Breaks’, delivered weekly in the Eric Liddell Centre, provide accessible, holistic provision for those living with Alzheimer’s and Dementia and their carers.
