Executive summary
Dementia has been recognised by the G7 as one of the biggest global challenges of our time. The annual financial impact on the UK economy is £23bn. The GLA is championing a London based National Dementia Research Institute being led by UCL Partners. The Institute will build on existing strengths in research and act as a facilitator for collaboration. To deliver this for London, Government backing must be secured through a business case and a fully costed business plan developed to resource the project adequately. It is intended that the GLA’s role in the project will be migrated to MedCity once it is fully operational.
