Dementia: South East
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will make an estimate of the number of people living with dementia without a medical diagnosis in (a) the South East and (b) Slough.
Answered by Stephen Kinnock
No specific estimate has been made as the information is not held in the format requested. However, NHS England publishes monthly dementia diagnosis data in the primary care dementia data set official statistics. Data for March 2025 showed that the number of patients with a recorded diagnosis of dementia was 83,945 in the South East, and 610 in Slough. The number of people estimated with dementia ranges from 122,500 to 147,000 in the South East, and 900 to 1,200 in Slough.
