The Beautiful Game?

Dementia currently affects approximately 850,000 people in the UK and 600,000 family members who have had to become full time carers. It costs the UK economy in the region of £26bn a year, more than cancer and heart disease combined. So should football be expected to foot the bill for former players’ care and support? And if so, who should that responsibility lay with?

Supporting Former Footballers Living With Dementia

Steve Elliott celebrated his 60th birthday in September. A former professional footballer, Steve started his career at Nottingham Forest after signing apprentice forms with Brian Clough and later signed professional forms at the age of 18.
How it works

We work in partnership with organisations and community venues, including sports clubs, community hubs, sheltered housing, care homes and hospitals to run both Sporting Memories Clubs and one-to-one activities.
Football, Dementia and Me. One Year On

On the anniversary of Alan Shearer's groundbreaking BBC 1 documentary exploring the possible links between football and dementia, we look back on the progress made and launch a new campaign to support former players.
