Join a team of researchers who are studying brain health and dementia through an engaging public activity.
Interact with a giant 'snakes and ladders' game designed to highlight lifestyle choices that either reduce (ladders) or increase (snakes) the risk of developing dementia. The game illustrates how small adjustments in daily habits can lead to improved brain health.
Growing evidence suggests that environmental and lifestyle factors play a significant role in influencing dementia risk. It is estimated that up to 45% of dementia cases may be attributed to modifiable risk factors, such as diet and physical activity. Many of these lifestyle choices are closely linked to the activation of the immune system.
By understanding and addressing these modifiable risk factors, you can play a vital role in building healthier communities and supporting better brain health - for yourself and those around you!
