2026 UK Dementia Awards
We’re excited to present a refreshed 2026 Awards programme that celebrates learning, sharing, and inspiring across the dementia community. With a streamlined set of 15 awards, we’re recognising excellence across care, innovation, research and lived experience celebrating the dedication, creativity, and compassion that drive real change.
Gala Awards Lunch and Ceremony
Our gala lunch award celebration is rooted in connection and community. Far from the glitz and glamour of typical awards nights, this event fosters a heartfelt atmosphere where stories are shared, achievements are genuinely acknowledged, and people, including those with lived experience, come together to appreciate the work that truly matters. It’s a space for recognising achievement with authenticity—where the focus is on impact and where everyone leaves feeling re-energised and truly valued for the difference they make in the dementia community.

Sponsor Involvement with Judging
The UK Dementia Awards celebrate excellence in dementia care, leadership, and research. Each award is judged by a panel of 2–4 individuals, carefully selected to reflect a balance of expertise and lived experience. Panels include colleagues from our Board, Advisory Group, Equality Diversity & Inclusion Groups and the dementia wider community, alongside people directly affected by dementia.
We are looking for judges who bring:
- Understanding of quality in dementia care
- Experience in leadership and innovation
- Knowledge of research and evidence-based practice
- Commitment to valuing lived experience
Sponsors are warmly invited to select an award category to support. By doing so, you will be collaborating with a panel that embodies integrity, inclusivity, and excellence.
