Dementia is now Britain's biggest killer, overtaking heart disease for first
time new figures have shown.
Some 70,366 people died from Alzheimer's disease and dementia last year
compared to around 66,076 deaths from heart disease.

In 2015 heart disease was the biggest killer with 69,785 death, while 69,182
people died from dementia.

The switch is being driven by the ageing British population, combined with
improvements in heart health, as more people are prescribed statins and beta
blockers to cope with high cholesterol and high blood pressure.

Charities have called on the government to double its annual £132 million
dementia research funding over the next five years. Projections suggest that
1.2 million will be living with dementia by 2040.

The new figures combine data released last year from the Office for National
Statistics (ONS) with new mortality statistics from the Northern Ireland
Statistics and Research Agency, giving a full picture for Britain.

Hilary Evans, Chief Executive at Alzheimer's Research UK, said: "These
startling figures emphasise the health crisis we face in the UK at the hands
of dementia. Year-on-year, we are seeing more people conquer and survive
serious health conditions like heart disease, but deaths from dementia
continue to rise.
"The fact that there are currently no treatments to slow or stop the
diseases behind dementia brings into sharp focus the scale of the challenge
and the urgency with which we must tackle it.

"Dementia may be the biggest killer in the UK today, but research has the
power to stop this from being the case in the future."

Around 850,000 people in Britain are living with dementia, the majority of
whom have Alzheimer's disease. But despite dozens of trials no treatment has
yet been found to halt or reverse the decline.

However data released by Stanford University last weekend suggested that
infusions of young blood may help people with dementia to function. People
with Alzheimer's disease who received blood plasma from people aged between
18 and 30 were found to be able to dress and feed themselves more easily.

We knew that after they voted a Muslim in as mayor of London.
